This unique and contemporary cabinet is inspired by the Manueline style, a style of architectural ornamentation of the first decades of the 16th century. A perfect symbiosis of innovative design and techniques with historic heritage. The body is made from wood and coated in copper leaf, finished with a black lacquer gradient that highlights its imposing architectural lines, causing the same impression as the first glimpse at a great cathedral. Two overlay doors give way to an interior lined in copper that boasts a glass shelf and a set of four drawers. In absolute contrast with the modern body of this statement piece, the legs are carved from solid mahogany and it features a turned twist style, making the D. Manuel a versatile cabinet for either classical rooms or modern houses.
