About the Item

RARE DANISH MODERN ROSEWOOD, BRASS AND GLASS TAMBOUR-FRONT DRY BAR CABINET Designed by Kurt Ostervig circa 1960s unmarked Item # 311WAH13A An exceedingly beautiful and quite rare tambour-front dry bar cabinet designed by the Danish furniture designer Kurt Østervig (Denmark, 1912-1986), it is a very well-known design of his despite being unmarked. It is very hard cabinet to find, especially in the United States. This example is finished in brilliant chaotic rosewood veneers that flow from one edge into the next with nearly seamless transitions. The tambour-front doors are easily opened with original polished brass vertical handles that allow the doors to slide into the sides of the case, revealing a shelved interior lined with tinted glass edged with brass. It is worth noting that this cabinet most commonly features an interior with two-thirds on the right being shelved with lattice-work glass and the left side being situated with drawers over a storage space - we have not removed the glass from this cabinet to see if it perhaps was reworked on the interior, but the glass and brass is all quite old and appears to be of the same date as the cabinet. It is no surprise the cabinet is highly sought-after with incredibly elegant lines, faceted edges and legs, premium hardware and materials and a flawless form. And most importantly, the cabinet remains incredibly relevant today for our modern interiors, working well both as a bookcase, a sideboard or credenza or as intended: as a dry-bar. Measurements: 45 5/8" H x 18" D x 47 3/8" W Condition Report: A very fine presentation with vibrant and well-preserved veneers throughout; the top has a underlying water stain that is rather subtle and does not capture well in the photos but remains present nonetheless (we can send additional candid shots upon request); light scuffs/scratches/surface history throughout; the interior is possible reworked, but we have not removed the mirrors to see if this is perhaps the case; replaced key; cabinet has been repolished and is ready-to-place; very fine quality.
