Shagreen Cabinet
What Is a Shagreen Cabinet?
A shagreen cabinet features a distinctive textured finish inspired by the skin of stingrays. Traditionally used in luxurious French décor, modern shagreen furniture incorporates faux or real finishes to create a refined, pebbled texture that's both tactile and visually rich.
