It immediately captivates with its light oak veneer and elegant herringbone marquetry—this chevron pattern on the drop-front and lower doors adds rhythm and vibrancy to mid-century furniture. The piece is organized into three well-thought-out sections: an open niche at the top for displaying a few cherished objects, a central drop-front that opens to reveal a writing area, and at the bottom, two small doors that conceal useful storage. This is a functional and charming piece of furniture, perfect for a living room, bedroom, or home office.

The piece is vintage and dates from the 1950s. It is made of beech and golden-stained oak veneer. It is in good condition. Some signs of wear are visible in the photos, and there is a small, discreet chip in the veneer on the bottom of the lower door. One leg has a small chip. The glass doors on the upper section are missing. The piece of furniture is stable, practical, sturdy, and in good condition.

78.5 cm wide, 41.5 cm deep (78 cm deep with the door open), 151 cm high. See less
