Enter the world of A Magic Cabinet

It is a very nice concept really! The story of Magic Cabinet. And I always fall for this kind of stories as a romantic girl I am…

“From the sixteenth century, magic cabinets, cabinets of curiosity or Kunstkabinetts were produced as some of the most expensive, exclusive and expertly crafted pieces of furniture ever made for sovereigns and leaders.

Every time the cabinet opened, entrancing scents would envelop the room transporting me to a sensory wonderland. The range of these items was lavish. Antiquated first aid kits casually placed next to faded photographs, miniature aromatic soaps, too slippery to grasp and moulded like fruits, bath potions, rich beauty creams, damask decorated Florentine note paper and embossed cards, sharpened pencils and fanciful pens, a wooden top painted with bands of vivid colour and imbued with cedar oil to perfume a closet, all were lodged together.“

So you understand that when I got to work with A Magic Cabinet shopping and editorial platform, I wanted to create something artsy, something that tells the story of my personal Magic Cabinet.
