Yngve Ekström 'Bangkok' Cabinet for AB Westbergs Möbler

About the Item

Yngve Ekström for AB Westbergs Möbler 'Bangkok' cabinet, teak, beech, mahogany, Sweden, 1950s. A beautiful cabinet designed by Yngve Ekström for AB Westbergs Möbler in the 1950s. This cabinet displays structured door panels that are decorated in an entangled carving of the wood, which adds to the appeal of this beautiful piece. The light colored frame in beech wood makes a nice open contrast to the darker colored closed cabinet. This body of this piece is made in teak wood with beautiful grain. Yngve Ekström (1913-1988) was a Swedish furniture designer, wood carver and architect. Ekström was one of the pioneers of what we nowadays call modern Scandinavian furniture. In his designs, he combined strictness with frivolity and elegance with functionality. Please note that this piece is in good, used condition.

    By Guillerme et Chambron, Votre Maison
    Located in Waalwijk, NL
    Guillerme & Chambron, cabinet, model 'Thierry', oak, France, 1960s. This mischievous sideboard mirrors the European Gothic Revival period of the nineteenth century by means of the heavy black stained wood. The design seamlessly blends with any interior bringing the old antiquated ambience into your home. The whole construction is solidly built showing the typical characteristics of the designer duo Guillerme et Chambron, par example the graphic pattern of carved lines on the sliding door panels, add a wonderful rhythmic and haptic surface to the front. The whole corpus rests on a stable base arranged in two columns, which results in a sculptural appearance. Functionality comes into play through the availability of great amount of storage space. Looking from left to right, the smaller cabinet is arranged through a drop-down door with a built-in shelve and three extended drawers. The interior of the grand part is furnished with multiple shelves. The combination of color and specific design characteristics underline the essence of the design, resulting in a bold, luxurious cabinet...
