Felix Mango Wood & Gold Cabinet

The Felix Cabinet is a handmade iron and mango wood cabinet with a shell motif across the front, measuring 175cm wide, 46cm deep and 76cm high. The shell panels are an art deco reference, while the overall shape stays long and low. It is intended as a sideboard or a TV unit.

At 175cm across, this needs a decent stretch of uninterrupted wall. Behind a dining table it reads as a sideboard. In a living room with a television on top, the 76cm height sits at a sensible level for viewing from a sofa.

Iron and mango wood give it real weight, and the shell detailing is the thing people notice first. If a room already has a lot of pattern in it, this will compete for attention. In a plainer setting it does the decorative work on its own.
