JANTAR display cabinet with lighting, left, 62 cm, plinth base

JANTAR display cabinet on a plinth, 62 cm: a calm column of oak

The same slim cabinet from the collection, this time with a solid timber base. The difference shows at once: the piece does not hover, it stands, and the vertical reads as one dense block with no gap underneath. The door opens to the left, the glass is tinted, an LED line glows inside. Height is 197 cm rather than the 203 cm of the version on legs.

What it is made of

• timber plinth running round the whole carcass
• tinted glass door, left opening
• lighting and two glass shelves inside
• closed compartment at the bottom behind an oak front
• handleless fronts, a recessed black line serves as the grip
• rounded carcass corners

Who it suits

A room laid with a rug, or a piece that stands tight against a wall with a tall skirting board. A home with small children and pets: nothing rolls or gets wedged under a continuous base. And anyone who finds the slim legged version too light for solid oak.

Size and what fits

The cabinet takes 62 cm along the wall, stands 45 cm out from it and stops at 197 cm. Those six centimetres against the legged version settle the matter where a picture rail, a shelf or an air conditioner runs above the furniture. The glazed part is for glasses and china, the closed section for everything else.

How it sits in the room

A continuous base wants a level floor: on tiling with a step the cabinet has to be packed out, whereas four feet forgive unevenness more easily. Against a wall, though, such a piece sits flush where the skirting is low and leaves no gap behind. Keep a distance between the cabinet and a radiator: timber dislikes constant dry heat.

Materials and finish

Solid oak combined with board under natural veneer, rustic oak tone, lacquered on top. The plinth uses the same timber as the carcass. Furniture by the Polish factory MEBIN, one year warranty.
