This anonymous 19th-century design from the Metropolitan Museum of Art features a mirrored cabinet and a set of corner shelves. Both pieces are rendered in a simple, elegant style. The cabinet features a central mirrored door framed by a delicate floral design and a top shelf that can be used as a display area. The corner shelves are crafted in a similar style and designed to fit perfectly in the corner of a room. These designs showcase the trend for incorporating decorative elements into functional furniture during the 19th century.
