With its dark wood and glass, this second-hand medicine cabinet brings a gentle countryside touch to a bathroom wall or kitchen. Its vertical format allows it to fit into a narrow space while providing closed storage behind the glass door and a drawer at the bottom to keep small essentials handy. Wall-mounted or freestanding, it adapts to the layout and maintains a simple look that pairs easily with natural materials. The combination of wood and glass forms a balanced ensemble that is both discreet and decorative. In a washroom, it holds bottles and accessories, while the bottom drawer stores cotton pads, band-aids, or small everyday items.

It gained prestige in the 18th century under the name "tier," making its way into salons to display precious bindings or fine porcelain. Its structure, without doors or side panels, makes it the lightest piece of furniture in the home, a minimalist feat that frees up floor space while decorating walls. Today, it serves not only for storage but to stage our daily lives, transforming a utilitarian surface into a true living picture that breathes and allows light to circulate.
