Small, Viennese Glass Display
Exceptional design of a glass display case executed in a hexagonal shape. The frame is crafted in mahogany and shellac-polished, with brass fittings and handles.
Standing on six slightly tapered legs with hinted shoes, the display case is equipped with a lower section featuring a glass shelf. The upper section of the display case is surrounded by glass on all sides and includes both a glass bottom and a glass lid with two handles, which can also be used as a tray when needed.
The six sides of the display case compartment are equipped with intricate special hinges for folding out. When opened, these six sides act as shelves around the display case.
The purpose of this likely custom-made display case is versatile, ranging from a showcase and presentation case for glass, porcelain, or silver, to a bar or pastry furniture, and likely much more…
A perfect piece of furniture for the center of a room. Due to its numerous glass surfaces and delicate design, it does not visually shrink rooms.
