The cabinet was originally part of a set. The cabinet is crafted from unique Ovangkol exotic wood veneer, which boasts an exceptionally striking and decorative grain. The cabinet is framed by elegant profiles of tubular chrome-plated steel. The cabinet plinth is made of chromed sheet metal, which visually lightens the massive body. The drawers are constructed from a combination of solid beech wood and plywood, ensuring their sturdiness and durability for storing linen and other items. The cabinet has undergone restoration, features a revived original wood polish, and the chrome has been professionally cleaned. It is ideal for those seeking functional and aesthetically refined storage space with high collectors value and Bauhaus history. It has been re-polished with polyutherane piano lacquer by our professional refurbishing team in Czechia according to the original process. This item features classic Bauhaus design elements. Elements of this style are neutral colors and occasional bright primary colors. Bauhaus designers avoided the fussy and pretentious, looking for clean, modern lines.
