A work of art. This piece is an exceptional look at a painstaking practice of an ancient art form. For centuries, artisans on the continents of Africa and Asia, practiced the craft of intarsia, or more commonly, bone inlay. The bone used was more often than not camel bone. The contrast between the ivory bone and the deep wood gives it depth and design that is just as beautiful today as it was then. This piece is extremely versatile. The top cabinet has two drawers and a shelf. The bottom cabinet has two shelves. We picture it as a cool bar, a place to hold an interesting curios collection, or extra storage in a bedroom. Wherever it finds a home, this cabinet will command the room.

Bone inlaid wood.
Really beautiful. In overall fine and stable condition. There are old scuffs, marks, and scratches consistent with age and use. There are also scattered instances of loss to the inlay throughout with associated filling in several areas. It has been refinished nicely.
