Egyptian style - display cabinet / bookcase

new ancient Egyptian Revival style painted media center display cabinet bookcase with decorative Egyptian designs

This large piece has a visually strong shape, influenced by the splayed shape & massing of Pylon buildings and gates from Egypt. The decoratively painted front really makes the piece with typical Egyptian designs and patterns. This piece can be used for several purposes, from media center to display unit, drinks cabinet, bookcase, home office use, etc. The unit can have all open shelves, or some doors as we've shown - which allow for decorative designs to be applied to them. The shelves can either be solid or glass, depending on how you would like to use the cabinet; glass shelves being more suited to display of Objets D'Art or china /glasses, solid shelves for books. As well as the splayed frame around the furniture, we have also shown a straight frame around it, or you could choose to have no frame.

We can treat the sides in 2 ways, as shown. Solid sides give more the visual impression of a solid block of a building. Or we can leave the ends open, using shelves and/or a cupboard, for even more display/storage space. The painting can be left clean and contemporary, or distressed to look more antique. Below we've shown just a few ideas for different colours and designs, but we can decorate this anyway you want and in any colours you want. Made to order, we don't disclose sizes or prices until we've agreed a spec with a customer.

Above left is shown a shorter version of the large media center display cabinets shown above. It shows how you can play around with such designs, and change colours easily. For use as a display unit you would probably want to use glass shelves, for a bookcase probably solid shelves. Above right is shown a corner display unit. This can be added to any run of furniture with straight ends. Or we could do a double version as a display shelf unit, shown on a seperate page.
