This wall-mounted cabinet belongs to Paul Evans' iconic Sculpture Front series, developed in the early 1960s. Each panel is a unique composition of hammered, welded, and textured geometric forms, enriched with brass inlays, colored pigments, and 23-karat gold leaf. The result is a sculptural facade that is at once raw, precious, and radically modern.

Evans, a key figure in the American studio craft movement, rejected industrial uniformity by reintroducing the singularity of the handmade gesture into functional furniture. This piece, entirely handcrafted in his New Hope, Pennsylvania studio, reflects his ambition to merge sculpture and utility through a poetic Brutalist language.
