About the Item

This breathtaking Mid-Century Modernist Magazine Rack in Book-matched Rosewood is designed by the esteemed artist Rolf Hesland for Bruksbo, originating from Norway, Circa 1960. Hesland trained as a furniture maker in Norway and later studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. He worked for several years in Denmark before returning to Norway in the early 1950s to establish his own furniture workshop. This particular piece is entirely crafted in remarkably beautiful Bookmatched Rosewood and features a highly angular composition of intersecting planes and gorgeously achieved proportions. This choice of design reflects the purpose of the piece, ideal for storing magazines or even vinyl records with ample sections in order to organize and protect the contents. The side planes are trapezoidal with vertically oriented wood grain, displaying gorgeous book-matched detailing of the sumptuous and beautifully finished rosewood. Utilizing traditional techniques with sophisticated modern design and aesthetics, this piece is sure to style well in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. In Mint Restored Condition. Norway, circa 1960 Dimensions: Height: 17.5" x Width: 26.75" x Depth: 15.75"
