These nifty, [coffin shaped cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popcorn-coffin) can add character and calmness to an otherwise mundane kitchen.

Since they don't have the same efficient storage capacity as regular, rectangle shaped drawers, their value is purely on the cosmetic and social.
In particular, I noticed that they would be a good complement to other [coffin-shaped furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffin-shaped-engagement-rings) such as beds and tables, which were noted in earlier Trendhunter submissions.

The website where I first found these cabinets, is located in Russia, so I was unable to obtain cost or measurement specifications short of learning the language.
