Restored English Modern Teak And Rosewood Trestle Base Sideboard Credenza

About the Item

Probably one of the most loved pieces in our store at the moment, this seemingly standard MCM credenza is packed with style and subtlety. Heads turn when the sculpted, rosewood trestle base comes into view. The 3/4 and side views are pure architectural elegance. Nearly every facet has contrasting tones because the maker used an assortment of teak wood species to create contrasting hues and patterns throughout. Fiery cathedral grain is on display from top to bottom. The drawers, doors, top and sides each have personality all their own. The dark, chunky, tawny rosewood pulls on the drawers are yet another demonstration of this discipline. Additionally, the top surface is trimmed with an elevated border of contoured solid teak, adding both practicality and charm. A center bank of three deep drawers is flanked by open cabinet space on either side. The left side features a pull-down drawbridge door. Designed and Manufactured by Portwood Furniture of Stockport Manchester England circa 1960's. The construction quality on this piece is exceptional. There's virtually no bowing or sagging after all the these decades. The doors and drawers open easily and shut without any gaps. This unique credenza came to us in already good condition, but our restoration team still spent many hours mitigating the minor imperfections. We’re certain you won't find a more sublime representation of this sideboard anywhere. Measures: 81 1/8" Long x 17.75” Deep x 28 5/8” High.

Thomasville Embassy Wood Inlay Asian Modern Campaign Style Brass Accent Credenza
By Thomasville, Henredon, Drexel, Dorothy Draper
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Dorothy Draper style campaign credenza made by esteemed US furniture maker Thomasville circa 1970s. Old growth flaxen flared grain fruitwood (most likely pecan) from top to bottom are the hallmarks of the Embassy line. Black lacquer accents and brass pull hardware tie together British traditional and Eastern design. The door facades exhibit a diamond pattern wood inlay with contrasting color tones, presented tastefully to demonstrate a delicate ornate sensibility. Two large Interior cabinet spaces offer heaps of open storage with a single stationary shelf in each bay. No composite or MDF anywhere on this campaign credenza. Thomasville used a combination of solid hardwood interiors, solid fruitwood and veneers. We purchased this from the original owners out of time-capsule estate and nearly everything in the home was from the Thomasville Embassy...
