WALL CABINETS
Wall cabinets are for those who want to make use of vertical space without making an interior look boring. Here, you will find old wall cabinets, wall display cabinets and small wall-mounted cabinets in wood, glass and metal, all with plenty of patina, character and signs of a previous life. Some are authentic old finds. Others are made from reclaimed materials or feature details that make them feel more like wall décor than traditional storage.
These are the kind of wall cabinets that help you keep things organised while also becoming part of the interior itself. Ideal when floor space is limited or when a wall deserves something with a little more personality than another anonymous poster.
Old wall cabinets with patina, glass and personality
At Trademark Living, you will find wall cabinets with history, wear marks and materials that have lived a little. Many of the cabinets are made of wood with uneven surfaces, glass doors and original fittings with small signs of use that only add to their charm.
Some models work as small wall display cabinets where the contents remain partly visible. Others are more enclosed and practical. What they all have in common is their ability to add warmth, personality and a more lived-in feel to a wall.
Among the selection, you will find:
- Small wooden wall cabinets with glass doors
- Vintage wall cabinets with shelves and compartments
- Old wall cabinets with patina and original details
- Wall display cabinets for storage and decoration
- One of a kind wall cabinets with unique character
Some of the wall cabinets are one of a kind pieces. That means you get an old find with its own character, patina and small imperfections. The kind of wall cabinet that adds personality to an interior and a little less of that “ordered on Tuesday, delivered on Thursday” feeling.
Wall cabinets for organised clutter and everyday essentials
A wall cabinet is rarely the answer when you need to store everything you own. On the other hand, it is perfect for the things you would like to keep visible without having them scattered everywhere.
In cafés and restaurants, wall cabinets are often used for glasses, napkins, small bowls, menus or decorative objects. That makes them both practical and decorative at the same time. Wall display cabinets are especially useful for what could be called organised clutter. Everything is gathered in one place while still contributing to the atmosphere and personality of the room.
At home, many people use them as a combination of storage and wall decoration. An old wall cabinet can easily replace a picture on the wall and add depth and character to a room, especially when styled with small finds, glassware, ceramics or other decorative objects.
For example, you can combine your wall cabinet with decorative accessories for small displays and still lifes, or with vases for branches, dried flowers, feathers and other decorative details.
What to consider when choosing a wall cabinet
There is quite a difference between wall cabinets. Some are narrow and decorative, while others offer more depth and practical storage space. That is why it makes sense to consider how the cabinet will actually be used before making a choice.
Things to consider include:
- How much weight the wall can support
- Whether the cabinet is mainly for storage or decoration
- Whether you want the contents visible through glass doors
- How much depth you have available
- Whether the cabinet will hang alone or as part of a larger wall arrangement
Many of our old wall cabinets feature existing wear marks, small imperfections and natural variations in wood, colour and surface. Those are not flaws. They are part of the character, and thankfully so.
