Black Labyrinth by Eckhard Beger for ArteNemus is a vertical chest of drawers with 15 drawers drawing its inspiration from Asian medical cabinets and the Bauhaus style. Its dark architectural appearance is brought to life through bright marquetry rays with three focal points which are mirrored around the structure. The conception and mechanism of the vertical drawers with their rotating compartment convey the piece its intriguing appearance. The wood structure is covered with black dyed ebony veneer while the marquetry is made in flamed maple. The veneer is oiled to achieve a satinated finish.
