BOX & PLAY

 

With eleven inner boxes held in a slender outer box, Box & Play is a bespoke rectangular cabinet inspired by the 18th century trompe l’oeil painting ‘Nature morte aux oiseaux exotiques’ by Alexandre-Isidore Leroy de Barde. The original painting, which is in the collection of the Louvre in Paris, can be seen here.

​

The cabinet pictured here was made in plain and fumed oak, the latter giving it a contrasting shade. The individual boxes can be pulled forwards for a 3-dimensional effect or can be rearranged in different configurations. The cabinet can be mounted in portrait or landscape orientation.

​

What is included:

• Size 830mm x 600mm x 160mm

(10% adjustment allowed)

•  

• Traditional choice of local/British woods including evenly grained and strongly patterned options, or a modern man-made board, plain wood with colour paint;

​

Each cabinet is individually numbered and supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity.

If you feel inspired but favour something tailored to you own needs, we also offer a fully commissioned service.
