1940s chest of drawers / archive cabinet by Danish cabinet maker. Oak and brass
By Børge Mogensen, Hans J. Wegner, Arne Vodder
Located in København K, 84

This archival chest, crafted with meticulous attention to detail, stands as a testament to the virtuosity and ingenuity of its creator.

At first glance, the cabinet presents itself with an air of modesty, its true grandeur hidden behind two brass piano-hinged front doors. These doors, adorned with a subtle sheen, offer a glimpse into the treasures concealed within. As they swing open with a gentle grace, they reveal a symphony of craftsmanship—a symphony composed of twelve meticulously crafted drawers...
