Rainfall Two-Door Chest

Availability: 4-6 weeks

A substantial two-door chest from John Richard, the Rainfall is composed of beech and steel with glass insets, finished in a deep espresso and burnished bronze that together read as something between a serious antique and a thoroughly modern commission. At just over three feet tall and nearly fifty inches wide, its proportions are lateral and grounded — the kind of piece that anchors a room rather than merely inhabiting it. The bronzed metalwork plays against the espresso ground with a quiet authority, lending the chest a cabinet-maker's dignity without any of the heaviness that so often accompanies dark finishes.
