This sculptural beauty features a unique raised relief geometric cubist diamond frieze pattern on each side cabinet door molded of Futuron, a stronger than wood veneer in warm natural pecan tones.

The clean lines of the rich pecan frame and tapered legs depict the style of Danish modern design.

Condition Report: Construction is sturdy; doors and drawers open smoothly; minor imperfections to wood consistent with age and use; brass hardware shows mina patina.
From Broyhill’s original description of this line “inspired by one of America’s most dramatic landmarks, Diamond Head in Hawaii. The exciting diamond head motif is reminiscent of the craggy slopes of Diamond Head as they capture the light – shelter the shadows”
