including pieces havrngrstickpins; and elastic pockets, wall hooks, andla-slielf for other typesmf pieces An additional objectiof the invention is to revide a jewelry cabinet having a novel mirror assembly to enhance the appearance of the cabinet, and the jewelry pieces displayed therein.
A further object of the invention is to provide a practical and convenient cabinet, and one which will be exceedingly effective for the purpose for which it is designed.
These objects are accomplished by means of such structure and relative arrangement of parts as will fully appear by a perusal of the following specification and claim.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the jewelry cabinet.
Fig. 2 is a cross section on line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a cross section on line 33 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a cross section on line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
Referring now more particularly to the characters of reference on the drawings, the cabinet, indicated generally at I, is of relatively tall but shallow construction.
The cabinet I is rectangular and includes a top 2, a bottom 3, and side walls 4; there being a back panel 5 on the cabinet engaged in mortised out-portions 6 at the rear thereof.
At the front the cabinet I is initially open, and is fitted with a pair of vertically elongated, substantially half width slide doors I which run, at opposite ends, in guide channels 8 in the top 2 and bottom 3; such slide doors I being of clear plate glass, and each having a finger-hold 9 formed therein on the outside. As the slide doors 1 are of clear or transparent glass, the contents the'cabihet bein'gf especially de-' I i gh t'isfadaptableffol" stichasth" display "of se-" inventionisdir ted m nswear ob;

The si de mirrors" I 2 are held in "place by the flanges I4 of screw hooks I5 which project through holes in said side mirrors and screw into the side walls 4. Thehooks I5 are arranged symmetrically on each side of the cabinet adjacent the top thereof, so that articles of jewelry may be suspended from said hooks in the cabinet.
Below the hooks I5 the cabinet includes a shelf I6, preferably of clear plate glass; said shelf I6 being of the same width as the side mirrors I2 and mounted at the ends in connection with the latter.
The back panel 5 is provided with a sheet of velvet facing ll, and a cushion sheet I8 of relatively greater thickness is interposed between the velvet facing I"! and said back panel 5. At the edge portions the sheet of velvet facing IT, together with the cushion sheet I8, turn about corresponding edges of the back panel 5, and are frictionally gripped in the mortised portions 6 when said back panel is mounted in place. The back panel 5 is attached to the cabinet by small brads or the like.
Some distance above the shelf IS the sheet of velvet facing I'i is formed with a plurality of horizontal, vertically spaced, upturned pleats I9; thus forming a plurality of upwardly opening pockets 253 which extend transversely from side to side of the cabinet. Each pleat I 9 carries, within the same, a length of elastic ribbon 2i; such ribbons extending to and about opposite side edges of the back panel 5, whence they are gripped in the mortised portions 6 when said back panel is affixed to the cabinet. The elastic rib- 3 bons 2| permit the pockets 20 to be expanded for placement of an article of jewelry therein, and then contract the pocket when it is released.
When th above described jewelry cabinet is in use, it may be set upon a woman's dressing table in forwardly facing relation, or the cabinet may be suspended from a wall by suspension eyes 22 which project upwardly from the back of said cabinet adjacent its rear corner.
Access to the cabinet, when it is in use, is readily and conveniently gained by sliding one or the other of the doors i laterally; such doors normally being in closed position to maintain the inside of the cabinet and the jewelry therein against dust, soiling, etc.
Articles of jewelry which incorporate stick pins are stuck into the cushion pad, which includes the velvet facing 11 and cushion sheet l8. Other articles of jewelry are suspended from the hooks l; placed in the pockets or disposed on the shelf 16 or bottom mirror I l.
The mirrors I0, I I, and I2 produce a very effective and attractive appearance within the cabinet, as they tend to receive or show images of the jewelry in such cabinet.
While the cabinet is relatively simple in its structural arrangement, it provides a novel container for pieces of jewelry, the latter being maintained, in display, so that they are easy to find and remove from the cabinet when desired.
From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that there has been produced such a cabinet as substantially fulfills the objects of the invention, as set forth herein.
While this specification sets forth in detail the present and preferred construction of the cabinet, still in practice such deviations from such detail may be resorted to as do not form a departure from the spirit of the invention, as defined by the appended claim.
Having thus described the invention, the fol- 4 lowing is claimed as new and useful, and upon which Letters Patent are desired:
A cabinet comprising a top, a bottom, side walls, and a back panel of larger area than but symmetrical to the opening defined by said top, bottom, and side walls, the top, bottom and side walls being provided with a substantially right angle recess extending about said opening from the back of the cabinet to receive the back panel within the confines of the recess from the back of the cabinet, a sheet of relatively thick cushion material disposed over the front face of the back panel, a sheet of velvet facing material disposed over the front face of the cushion material, the peripheral dimensions of the cushion material and facing material being greater than the peripheral dimensions of the back panel, the cushion material and the facing material beyond the edges of the back panel being compressed and squeezed between the outer edges of the back panel and the recessed portions of the top, bottom and sides whereby the cushion material is drawn taut over the back panel and the facing material is drawn taut over the cushion material.
