About the Item

This elegant Dutch vanity from the 1950s exemplifies mid-century refinement with its clean lines, warm materials, and thoughtful craftsmanship. Executed in beautifully grained birch, the piece radiates a soft golden tone that brings warmth and lightness to any interior. The design features a harmonious balance of form and function: a spacious tabletop, integrated drawers for storage, and a tilting mirror. Its proportions are graceful yet practical, offering both utility and timeless style.

The birch wood, with its fine texture and natural variation, adds depth and character, while the restrained design ensures it complements both modern and vintage interiors. Origin: Netherlands Period: 1950s Materials: Birch, black lacquered birch, mirror glass, metal hardware A versatile and refined piece—perfect as a vanity, desk, or statement accent—that reflects the quiet elegance of Dutch modern design.
