Read on for our savvy findings to the look of the Anthropologie Fern Cabinet for less.
The Original Fern Storage Cabinet
Behold the Fern. This cabinet has an effortlessly cool vibe. It riffs off of multiple style periods with a clean arch silhouette yet ties in some whimsy with balloon feet. The glass doors and marble-topped drawers are perfect for many uses, from displaying china as a hutch or showing off baubles as a wardrobe. Or it could be the most beautiful home bar of all time. It really is a versatile piece, and it looks great in all six colors; however, our favorite is black. The juxtaposition of the lacquered black against the light Ash wood drawers and backing is just stunning.
The Half-Priced Alternative of the Fern Storage Cabinet
We found the closest match for the Fern Storage Cabinet from one of the most unsuspecting places: Anthropologie’s sister brand Urban Outfitters. This deal is right under your nose! If you haven’t been shopping UO’s homewares, take a look ASAP. It’s not just dorm tapestries anymore. In the last decade, Urban Outfitters has really bolstered its furniture and textile collections with more big buys and more wooden furniture. The black Mason Storage Cabinet is an absolute ringer for the black Fern. It doesn’t have the spindle legs but it does have the silhouette, the height and the bottom drawers. You could even drill and install your own brassy furniture pulls to make it more sophisticated like the Fern. It also comes in white and acorn, which is a solid dupe for the Fern's dark pine. However, if you’re really, really attached to the dark green or the slate Fern, you could buy the natural, bleached oak Mason and paint it!
The Quarter-Priced Alternative of the Fern Storage Cabinet
If $1,000+ is still way too much for your budget, have no fear. We found an even cheaper alternatives at Amazon for under $500. This version doesn't have full glass doors, but you still get the silhouette and contrasting light wood in the interior shelves. Plus, unlike the Urban Outfitters pick, the legs on this Amazon find are more similar to the Fern cabinet. And if you really want that marble top like the Fern, you can fake it with this painting technique or peel-and-stick contact paper.
