About the Item

This Scandinavian cabinet is made solely of mahogany wood and dates back to the 1950s/1960s. It is incredibly well built and is capable of holding a good deal of weight as the cabinet sits upon a sturdy, solid mahogany frame. The wooden exterior is in immaculate condition considering its age. The interior has two storage compartments and shows very minor wear. There are 3 shelves and one shelf/drawer combination -- all of which can be adjusted according to desired use. All hardware is original and doors open/close smoothly. The botanical flora illustrations on the cabinet are from the 1920's second edition of the Swedish book 'C.A. Lindman's "Bilder ur Nordens Flora"'. Each individual picture has been wallpapered by hand. They are in very good condition showing only minor wear and slight color variances due to aging towards the edges of each illustration. The colors are still vibrant and papers show no loss. Cabinet retains original key that unlocks both doors. Cabinet Body: 31.5" H Cabinet Legs: 23.75" H

Located in The Hague, NL
This elegant rosewood cabinet was designed by Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn in the late 1930's.
