Egyptian style - Sideboard / drinks cabinet

Several new sideboard designs really capture the essence of Egyptian style furniture in a contemporary way. These 2,3 & 4 door sideboards use classic Egyptian figure/graphic painting styles and heiroglyphs in a novel way. There is an almost Pop Art sensibility to some of these designs. This piece can be used for several purposes, from sideboard to drinks cabinet, home office use, etc.

The base itself is actually an interesting shape; basically it is a simple 2 - 4 door cupboard, but the decorative painting in traditional style really makes the piece. The sides are shown with 2 side panel options; a banded shape pattern or with flat heiroglyphic panels. The interior is fitted with 1-2 shelves usually. As well as a painted worktop you could also use limestone (the classic Egyptian stone) marble, granite, quartz, glass, Corian, whatever you like. The base is fitted with 2 polished brass sled legs, as much Egyptian furniture had basic sled feet for transporting it. The painting can be left clean and contemporary, or distressed to look more antique. As this is made bespoke we can change the proportions, within reason, change the designs and colours used. Made to order, we don't disclose sizes or prices until we've agreed a spec with a customer.

We also adapted the above sideboard design to produce an even more striking display cabinet - see page under bookcases section.
