Just finished this project. Elizabeth requested a remodel of this display case. Originally, It had a window in the front that did not open. Entry into the case was only from the right side. She purchased this case for $100 because the mirrors, glass shelves and front window had broken and were removed. She requested that I add a door, restore a chipped off place on one of the sculptured appointments and install all missing glass and mirrors. Originally, the front window stretched from the top wavy curve to the bottom of the cabinet. In order to add a door, I needed to lower the top of the case to below the leaf appointments on each side so the door could open properly. I mirrored the wavy design and added that piece of wood to lower the top section. I think it added interest and functionality to the case. It was a challenge and a lot of fun!
