The cabinet has four doors with touch release latches and brass Greek Key pulls that open to reveal open storage flanked by an adjustable/removable shelf on the right and the same shelf/open storage orientation on the left with the addition of a shallow drawer with removable silverware holder insert. The two doors on either end are ingeniously equipped with spring-loaded hinges which control the movement, preventing the end doors from flying open.
Very good, vintage condition. Wood has been conservatively refinished, and a few nicks/scuffs remain. Brass elements retain a rich, natural patina and are unpolished.
