Axel Einar Hjorth worked in his younger years at Svenska Möbelfabrikerna in Bodafors, before he in 1927 got employed as chief designer at Nordiska Kompaniet.
Thus, the cabinet was designed before 1927 and it’s fair to assume the cabinet was manufactured sometime in the 1920s.
Axel Einar Hjorth is beside his design of these type of Swedish Grace furniture known for the design of Nordiska Kompaniets Sport Cabin...
