This is such a special piece. Masterfully designed by Aksel Bender Madsen and Ejner Larsen and exquisitely made by Næstved Møbelfabrik in Denmark, c. 1960s. This beauty is long and lean and so very elegant with her cast brass door pulls and adjustable feet. The finely crafted disappearing tambour doors open to reveal adjustable shelves and finger-jointed pull-out trays (please see the video for demonstration.) The teak is beautifully grained and with a fabulous patina: the bottom of the case is especially beautiful with iridescent flaming. Finished on the back, this piece would make a wonderful room divider in an open living space. Model No. 1708: a rare design to begin with, but the few examples we’ve seen before have had teak door pulls rather than brass. This one is very special.
In excellent restored vintage condition with age-appropriate signs of wear. The case corners and edges have numerous light dings and bruises. The front right case edge has more noticeable blemishes as shown. There is a small chip to the very back, lower right side corner; a small chip on the top back right corner, and light scratches to the top.
