Museum Conservation Freestanding Showcase

Description

This museum-grade freestanding showcase provides a secure and flexible display for tall objects, textiles and multi-level arrangements. Its hinged glass door gives clear access to the display while concealed security fittings maintain a clean, refined appearance.

Without shelving, the full internal height can accommodate larger or vertically displayed objects such as a full size mannequin. Alternatively, adjustable glass shelves create several display levels for smaller artefacts. Discreet suspension wires support the shelves, giving them a modern “floating” appearance with minimal visual obstruction.

The compact 700 × 700mm footprint provides substantial vertical display capacity without taking up excessive floor space. In addition, lighting, humidity control, non-reflective glass and castor wheels allow the showcase to suit different collections and exhibition layouts.
