Step-Back Cupboard

A rustic-style piece of furniture like this cupboard can add personality, plenty of storage, and a classic feeling of comfort to any room.

Simple, country-style furniture has an unpretentious charm that's attractive and comforting in these complicated times. This classic step-back cupboard hits that mark square on. As you can clearly see, the ornamentation on this piece is simple and subtle — nothing the least bit fussy. And the practical uses for the cupboard are unmistakable. The closed lower section is deep to provide lots of hidden storage, and the shelves in the upper section create a display space.
