Imported straight from Italy, these oversized commodes (or cabinets, if you prefer) are the kind of vintage gems that command attention—and oh, do they have stories to tell.

Measuring an impressive 49" long and 34.5" tall, these cabinets are draped in a gilded fabric that has the most intriguing texture, like pebbled leather or shagreen. We’re not entirely sure what it is, but trust us—it’s fabulous. The gold-on-gold design? Absolute perfection for anyone with a taste for the luxurious. The solid brass hardware is rich with the kind of patina that only comes from decades of living the high life. And those pulls? Long, rectangular, and oh-so-sophisticated, they've got that deep burnished glow that whispers "I've seen things."

But wait—it gets even better. The front of these cabinets is an absolute showstopper. Picture this: a solid brass lattice grid wrapping the doors, complete with four horizontal and one vertical brass stretcher per door, creating a mesmerizing pattern that feels almost like an art installation. And because Italy is known for its glasswork, these bad boys come adorned with thin, decorative glass panels held in place by brass buttons. Sadly, these cabinets have lived quite the life, and a couple of those glass stretchers have gone off to greener pastures (one cabinet is missing two, the other is missing one), but honestly? It’s barely noticeable—especially when you’re too busy basking in their overall magnificence.

Let’s not forget the legs. Chunky, solid brass, and carrying a patina that tells a story of time and taste. These are not your average legs; these are statement legs, standing proud and sturdy, ready to support your most prized possessions—or just look fabulous on their own.

Inside, it’s just as dreamy. Swing open those double doors, and you’ll find a shelf perfect for storing all your chicest bits and bobs. The shelves and bottoms of the cabinets were at some point lovingly covered in dove grey fabric, trimmed with brass tacks for that extra layer of luxe. Because why stop at gold when you can add brass and grey for maximum elegance?

Oh, and did we mention the original glass tops? Yes, both cabinets come with their original glass tops, secured with the same brass buttons that grace the rest of the design. A true nod to mid-century Italian craftsmanship at its finest.

These cabinets are pure vintage opulence. The golden hue, the brass accents, the patina—it all just screams luxury in the most fabulous way. Whether you use them as commodes, bar cabinets, or even as bold statement pieces, they’re ready to add that “wow” factor to your space. Get ready to elevate your room’s vibe and be the envy of every design-loving friend you have. less
