The overall design is similar to many cabinets made by Krenov.
The rear panel is bookmatched figured cherry. Rotating brass spoke-wheel hangers and door pegs are from Brusso.
The necklace retainer is bent-laminated and curved parallel to the door surface. Fastened with bloodwood mounts, it holds necklaces on the brass pegs securely (and relatively quietly) when the door is opened quickly.
The purple-suede-lined drawers are made of maple with birdseye maple fronts cut from the same piece. Exterior drawer sides, rear, and bottom are finished with shellac polish and wax.

This wall-mounted jewelry cabinet was a surprise gift for my wife's mother. The dovetailed case and the door are made of figured cherry, the drawers are maple with birdseye maple fronts, and the accent pieces are bloodwood. The door is coopered and the interior necklace retainer is bent-laminated parallel to the door. Brass jewelry hangers and knife hinges are by Brusso. Case and drawer fronts are oil finished. 26" H x 12" W x 12" D.
