Portuguese Oak Tambour Door File Double Cabinet, By Olaio, 1950s

About the Item

This vintage oak cabinet from the 1950s is a piece of classic mid-century furniture with a distinct Portuguese flair, crafted by the esteemed company Olaio. The cabinet's design is both elegant and practical, featuring a sturdy and warm oak construction that has stood the test of time. One of the cabinet's most distinctive features is its double locking tambour roll doors. These doors are notable for their smooth sliding mechanism that allows them to roll upwards, providing a unique and space-saving way to access the contents of the cabinet. The tambour doors add an element of design sophistication and are complemented by metal handles that offer a contrast in texture and material to the oak wood. Additionally, the cabinet houses one drawer, providing a discreet storage solution for items that need to be kept handy but out of sight. The inclusion of eight shelves within the cabinet offers ample space and versatility for organization, allowing for books, collectibles, or various other items to be displayed or stored efficiently. The cabinet's functionality is further enhanced by the lock mechanism on the tambour doors, ensuring that the contents can be secured when needed. This oak cabinet by Olaio reflects the craftsmanship and design sensibilities of the 1950s, providing both visual appeal and practical utility in a timeless piece of furniture.
