About the Item
An excellent vintage Scandinavian teak bench by Torbjorn Afdal for Bruksbo. This was made in Norway, it dates from the 1960’s.
The quality is outstanding, this is beautifully made with stunning teak veneers, all on a sturdy solid wood construction. The bench is a useful and long width, it has a two drawer sliding chest unit that slides along the bench on felt pads, so can be used in various configurations. This is perfect for various settings around the home and would be very useful as an entry bench or tv stand.
We have had this stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is immaculate.
