It was manufactured in the 1930s in Czechoslovakia by the renowned company Mücke-Melder in Fryštát, which specialized in top-tier tubular steel furniture. This specific model represents the essence of Functionalism – a perfect balance between the lightness of the frame and the geometric purity of the storage space.

The item is a professionally restored original, with emphasis placed on preserving its authenticity. The tubular chrome-plated steel construction has been professionally cleaned to a high luster, highlighting its graceful lines. The wooden component, made of blockboard with oak veneer, features a refreshed original polish, showcasing the natural oak grain in a pleasing contrast with the cool metal. Thanks to its timeless look and versatility (ideal as a side table or nightstand), the table remains a relevant addition to modern interiors.
