Original Midcentury Bespoke 1970s Danish Teak Cabinet

The story goes that this handsome, bespoke Danish cabinet was part of an extensive modular system of wall units, commissioned by a wealthy Brit to have installed in their British home some 50 odd years ago. The cabinets, units, shelves and fittings were made by the same manufacturer who crafted furniture for renowned Danish brand, Drylund, no less. This tells us a great deal about the high quality of this piece, both in terms of design, teak and construction. A great deal of thought, time and money was invested in it. Our supplier was tasked with dismantling the system in recent years but hadn’t got round to marketing it so we were delighted to take it off his hands! The design means that the cabinet can sit directly on the floor for use as a sideboard or media stand (it’s a good height for a TV on top). The look is about as minimalist as you can get… uninterrupted expanses of warm, richly grained teak. Just marvel at the patina on the door fronts. Inside are adjustable shelves and both cupboards can accommodate vinyl. As you browse through our photos, you’ll see the fittings at the back should you wish to use it as intended, mounted on the wall. We’re told it simply slotted onto securely moored screws. A one-of-a-kind piece, truly unique and a midcentury original with a great narrative and pedigree.
