An exceptional Orientalist piece of furniture attributed to the prestigious Pogliani firm of Milan, famous for its designs inspired by Syro-Moorish art, which were showcased at major exhibitions in the late 19th century.

This remarkable two-part cabinet is entirely decorated with sumptuous inlays of mother-of-pearl, bone, ivory, silver, and pewter, forming a rich geometric and floral design. The doors are embellished with figurative panels depicting Oriental figures, while the carved side panels and the piece’s monumental architecture underscore the exceptional quality of its craftsmanship.

The cabinet opens via five doors, revealing numerous shelves that offer ample storage space. Fully decorated on its sides, it can be displayed as a centerpiece.

This piece perfectly illustrates the fascination with Orientalism that characterized European decorative arts in the late 19th century. Pogliani’s creations, now highly sought after, are featured in numerous private and public collections.
