curio cabinets

Shelved showcase boxes

Curio cabinets are display cases with glass panels, designed to showcase collectibles, figurines, or other decorative objects.

The glass allows viewing from multiple angles while protecting contents from dust and handling.

They typically feature interior lighting and adjustable shelves: Her collection of porcelain birds filled the curio cabinet in the living room.
