Possibly The Most Beautiful Key Rack/Cabinet Ever Made.
The marquetry artwork is ideal to create scenes of wildlife and/or flowers which seems to appeal to most people. The frame was made using curly maple with a figured cherry door. The exquisite, hand picked veneers consist of maple, cherry, birds eye maple and ribbon mahogany and curly/marbled walnut. I can also design a scene more to your ideas using different veneers also. There is also space for note pads and pencils or pens. With a little modification I could also change this into a small cabinet to hold necklaces, earrings and rings. Or, this could also be a spice cabinet in the kitchen.
