Tambour 001

This cabinet distills the traditional tambour door design to its purest form, elevated to eye level on a sleek stand. Rails and stiles have been eliminated, leaving only three minimalist elements: a top, a bottom, and tamboured doors. The tambours showcase continuous-grained, figured Sapele veneer that seamlessly wraps three sides of the cabinet. Curved, hand-carved handles invite engagement and discovery. As the cabinet opens, light dances across each tambour, the slats chasing one another around corners like facets of a crystal.

Inside, a stage-like setting displays cherished books, ceramics, or collectables. Below, three piston-fitted drawers feature recessed quarter-sawn sycamore handles, each with a subtle fingertip recess. The drawer bottoms are lined with different-colored leathers, adding an unexpected touch of luxury.

The stand's legs appear extruded from straight-grained Sapele, broadening as they meet the cabinet base. Asymmetric curved stretchers below draw the eye and form a space in front of the cabinet, inviting the viewer in for closer inspection and enhancing the piece’s visual intrigue.
