This early 20th Century cabinet has a timeless elegance, thanks to its adept combination of materials. The veined green onyx wonderfully contrasts with its pink veined marble backing, which in turn complements the glittering ormolu; all further enhanced with intricate champleve enamel detailing.
The cabinet is formed as three levels of galleries, each with an ormolu balustrade on marble flooring, and centered with a mirror-fronted door. Both the middle and upper galleries, together with the door, feature intricate champleve enamel detailing in the form of foliate patterns in red, blue and green. There is a further ormolu mount on the top of the pediment which takes the form of scrolling foliage. The mirrored door opens to reveal an interior of green onyx with two shelves.
