This 1960s design captivates with its masterful balance of clean geometry and refined craftsmanship. The box-shaped body impresses with its warm teak surfaces and an exceptionally articulated front: each of the four doors features two sets of two striking, deeply carved relief indentations, lending the front a fascinating, architectural three-dimensionality. Each of the four doors is fitted with its own elegant lock in the corner. As a sophisticated contrast to the angular silhouette, the sideboard rests on a solid base with gently rounded legs, perfectly complementing the sculptural design. The interior leaves nothing to be desired: Behind the right-hand door are tray-like drawers for cutlery or documents, while the middle and right sections offer ample storage space with generous shelves. We have professionally restored this sideboard: The teak surfaces have been thoroughly cleaned, carefully refinished, and refinished. The piece is in excellent, well-maintained vintage condition with beautiful wood grain and all locks and drawers functioning perfectly.
