4" |
 |
Leather-covered
$575. |

With intricately detailed tooling and coloring
of the leather surface on three sides, this French or Italian, multi-use
little display cabinet is just as interesting to look at as to look
in. It has one removable glass shelf and welcomes several
objects to showcase such at two shelves of tiny art objects, books or
mignonettes, or a couple of large all bisques after removing the shelf.
The top is arched, leather-covered wood and the back silk fabric covered.
It has a metal latch for closure, and it does have some wear to the leather
on the top edges. |

Fashion Doll Size
SOLD |

This piece was made in the 20th century, but is
extraordinary in the feel and authenticity of its Chinoiserie motif and
design. Made of wood, the coral painted background upplies the perfect
canvas for the allover Chinese illustrations in gold. It is perfect to
display with fashions of the 19th century, one of the eras when the
inspiration of Orient was found in furniture, textiles, art and jewelry.
With a drop down desk, two slide-out support beams and three storage
drawers, the shelves revealed when opening the top two mirrored doors are a
bonus indeed! |
