The ingenious way this cabinet actually locks is reminiscent of the details found in old fashioned women’s handbags where the brass finishing along the edge of the doors ends in a small brass ball giving the generally minimalistic piece originality and a strong identity. Like the clasp on a handbag, this shiny version lures and invites you to unlock it to reveal the pine veneered interior, inside.

A cabinet inspired by handbag. Here the ball clasp locking mechanism is the center of attention.
When opening, the pine veneered interior reveals itself much like the precious fabric inside of a handbag.

Swedish/French designer Mathieu Gustafsson
