Traditionally used as a china cabinet to display favorite dinnerware, this piece can certainly be also used to store beautiful stemware and as a bar, or to display treasured items or books. Versatile in what your design wishes might be, and functional with a great amount of storage space....and besides, it looks absolutely stunning lit at night.

Henredon wrote about its Artefacts Collection when it was first introduced:
"Henredon's Artefacts....There's no collection of bedroom, dining room and occasional furniture to compare with it. Artefacts is entirely original, yet blends with multitude styles and periods. Architectural in line, yet warm and informal in effect. Inspired by ancient themes, yet contemporary in style...Since lines are simple and uncumbered by elaborate ornamentation, this is a truly versatile collection....The result is a simple, classic beauty....a contemporary style so versatile that it will endure the years."

The wood is knotty oak that has been intentionally distressed. The finish was classified by Henredon as "Weathermark - a cool medium brown"
Each top section has three adjustable glass shelves, and each has an interior light. Each light has its own switch so that they are independent of each other..
The base on the left has three drawers, one with silver tarnish cloth that will help your silver stay shiny.
The right side of the base has one adjustable wood shelf
This cabinet is the perfect size. Will look good in either a large or smaller room

Exceptional quality. A true piece of art that will withstand the passing of time, and last longer than a lifetime.
This piece is in excellent vintage condition! less
