To add extra detail to the design, the legs are pulled slightly under the sideboard to account for skirting, making it possible to place the piece close to the wall. The two doors open and close via a set of magnetic pop in and out fasteners. Even the drawers are adjustable allowing the owner maximum storage capacity. Recently restored this piece is ideal for designers and collectors searching for an authentic, Danish-made case piece that is ready for a literal lifetime more of use.
