Description

French 19th-century, art populaire, wabi-sabi, monoxylite cabinet, made from solid wood. This organic, folk art, travail populaire cupboard provides sufficient storage space with shelves to store and display various items, like books, art and other curiosities. The patina on the monoxylite wood speaks to the great history of this 19th-century piece. Either Haut Savoie, Breton or Auvergnat.

With its remarkable patina, the design reminds us of the wabi-sabi philosophy which centres around the appreciation of the beauty of natural imperfection. The idea involves the understanding that everything ages with grace, and becomes more beautiful as it breaks, fades, or scars. It is the understanding that old and worn out things have their own elegant charm. The simplicity of the lines, combined with its remarkable woodworking and craftsmanship, will allow this French cabinet to bring a touch of authenticity to any home. Would fit well in a rustic minimal Axel Vervoordt inspired interior. This piece is in good original condition and reflects a warm and cosy feeling, ideal to give your interior extra character.
