It even changes color depending on the viewing angle.

It features four large drawers that reveal meticulous craftsmanship, where the wood interacts with geometry to create a piece that is both warm and graphic.

Its decidedly mid-century aesthetic transcends eras without ever losing its modernity. The discreet black lacquered handles and slender frame give it a light appearance while maintaining a strong presence in the room.

Its ample storage space allows for towels or linens. We've even left the old embossed Dymo labels on the drawer edges (see photos). They're easy to remove, but we have a soft spot for them. Beyond its primary function, however, this chest of drawers becomes a true canvas for self-expression. Placed in a living room, it transforms into an elegant display case for a collection of mid-century objects: ceramics, a sculptural lamp, art books, or carefully chosen vintage pieces.

The chest of drawers has aged remarkably well. It shows signs of wear on the top, consistent with its age and which do not detract from its aesthetic appeal (see photos). It is stamped on the back with a foreign mark, L.F. Odorhei.
