I can't recall using the word "exquisite" to describe a piece that we have featured. However, in this case, I can't think of a better adjective. This exceptional cabinet was designed by legendary designer and decorator Mario Buatta for Widdicomb Furniture. Over the past few decades, Mario Buatta's clients have included Barbara Walters, Malcolm Forbes, Henry Ford II, and a commission to redesign Blair House in Washington, D.C.
This cabinet is beautifully decorated and features a carved and gilded Greek key design, handpainted and embossed flora and fauna, faux bamboo carved legs and a faux painted marble top. There is a custom-cut piece of glass for the top as well. The two locking doors open to two drawers and an adjustable shelf. This is a show stopper. 43" l., 21" w., 36" h. American, c. 2nd half 20th c. SOLD
