Designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen for Søborg Møbelfabrik, the piece stands out for its compact and well-proportioned volume, elevated on cylindrical legs that visually lighten the structure. The clean surfaces are subtly punctuated by carved wooden handles, integrated into the front as discreet yet distinctive graphic elements.

Its most compelling feature lies in the internal configuration: the drop-front upper section reveals a writing surface and a series of organizing drawers, reflecting a thoughtful approach to everyday use. A hallmark of refined Scandinavian design, where functionality is seamlessly embedded into form.

The warm, richly grained wood enhances its understated elegance, allowing the piece to adapt effortlessly to both modern and more traditional interiors.

Condition: Excellent overall condition, polished surface, small loss on the lower edge.
Dimensions: Length 90 cm – Depth 48.5 cm – Height 94 cm
