When it comes to curio cabinets, an issue that is rarely discussed is the lighting. This is very surprising when you consider that the lighting will play a central role in properly illuminating your collectibles.
One of the challenges that arise when dealing with lighting is the fact that most curio cabinets are basically wooded enclosures with mirrored backs. As such, the curio cabinet maker will often have to try to find a balance between shadows and brightness. Therefore, the next time you are considering purchasing a lighted curio cabinet, you should spend extra attention viewing how the cabinet maker designed the lighting. Just remember, a lighted curio that cast shadows will look cheap and not provide the atmosphere you were looking for.
