Frosted Glass Cabinet Fronts
Frosted glass has a dreamy appearance. It’s softer than clear glass and it’s translucent property shields the items inside. In this design the frosted glass allows the wood shelves inside to show, but distorts the items inside enough to be functional for everyday items (not just those for decoration)!
