An exceptional, high-prestige investment opportunity for mid-century modern antiquities curators, eclectic tropical interior designers, and elite natural history folk art collectors.

DESIGN & ARCHITECTURAL PERFORMANCE FEATURES:• Authentic Mixed-Media Mandala: Interior canvas features an intricate, high-brilliance geometric flower mandala pattern meticulously crafted from genuine, multi-colored tropical bird feathers.• Iridescent Butterfly Wings: The outer flanks are framed beautifully with authentic, vibrant cobalt blue Morpho butterfly wings arranged under a thick protective layer of clear glass.• Premium Marquetry Hardwood Frame: Structured from select, heavy Brazilian rosewood/mahogany tones displaying beautiful organic grains, elegantly detailed with light-toned linear geometric wood contrast inlays in traditional Art Deco fashion.• Turned Dual Handle Infrastructure: Features two sturdy cylindrical turned wooden carrier handles secured by metal dowel stems for durable handheld transit carry. Reverse reinforced with a solid protective wood backing field fastened with vintage flat-head screws.

TRANSPARENT RETAIL CONDITION REPORT:• Structural Status: Good vintage pre-owned condition (Pristine cabinet display status). The organic feather mandala and biological butterfly wing patterns retain magnificent vibrant colors and iridescence under the clear protective glass. Top glass sheet, handles, and rear wood backings are 100% stable, secure, and tight. Free of glass chips or cracks.• Cosmetic & Vintage Character Notes: To ensure 100% honest catalog tracking, please observe the close-up macro photos. Being a 60+ year old organic wood item, it displays minor, natural age separation lines along the mitered joint seams of the corners from natural drying over time. Additionally, the clear protective glass features one minor, light superficial surface hairline scratch near the center area. This scratch is superficial, does not break through the glass structure, and is not easily visible at first glance except under angled lighting magnification. Priced low accordingly. Sold strictly as-is and as pictured.
