Retains original label inside drawer for manufacturer GOUFFÉ à PARIS | France, ca. 1930
Item # 310KWO02P
A positively gorgeous Art Deco period vitrine display cabinet, the somewhat typical form for the era features a central display area sealed behind a glass door and storage for books on the right and left behind blind doors. Because of its thin profile at just 16 1/2" in depth, the vitrine perfectly balances a gorgeous form and useful dimensions without in any way overwhelming a space. The central door is surrounded by a molded brass-plated rim and opens to reveal a vibrant birch-veneered interior with adjustable glass shelves, this over two drawers with molded hardware. The entire form is raised over a sleigh-form footing with brass-plated toe sabots on the extreme tips. The cabinet was executed by the renowned firm of Maison Gouffé in Paris during the 1930s, the same workshop where Jean Royere trained and eventually had many of his designs produced through.
Measurements: 56 7/8" H x 16 1/2" D x 51 1/4" W
