Fully renovated Mid century Chest of drawers by UP Závody Bučovice, Czechoslovak
About the Item
This cabinet is part of the iconic U-450 series designed by Jiří Jiroutek during his collaboration with the state company Interiér Praha. This particular piece is confirmed by the original production label from the Třešť plant, marked as U-450 Oak.
The design reflects the functionality and visual clarity of 1960s modernism – geometric form, angled legs, and lacquered contrasting doors in glossy yellow and white. The cabinet includes four compartments, each with a hinged door, suitable for storage of documents, tableware, or smaller items.
The body is made of veneered particle board in oak and plywood finish. The cabinet is fully renovated, in excellent condition.

Jiri Jiroutek
Few designers anywhere have created pieces that more distinctly shout mid-century modern than Jiri Jiroutek. Even as a young designer, Jiroutek reenvisioned the fabrication and functionality not only of cabinets and kitchen furnishings but also interior architecture.
However, it was the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair that ultimately inspired the Czech designer's funky, colorful, decorative yet multifunctional U-450 cabinets of the late ’50s and early ’60s that made Jiroutek a leading figure in the so-called Czech Brussels school.
Jiroutek's influence didn’t stop there. After revising an Ikea prototype design at the firm’s request in 1958, Jiroutek received an invitation from Ikea founder Ingvar Kamprad to join the company in Stockholm. The designs he created there in the late 1960s, as well as others inspired by his work at the renowned manufacturer Interiér Praha, remain Ikea best sellers to this day.
