At that time his father was managing director and at the same time label at Pastoe. In the mid-1940s, Cees Braakman traveled to the United States to study processes and design of other manufacturers. He was inspired by the designs of Ray and Charles Eames and Herman Miller Company. Back in parental mode he began to experiment with the bending of plywood and designed the first furniture series for pastoe. In 1954, the rare tea carriage model "PB01" resulted from curved birch plywood and massive oak. Swivel castors made of black bakelite. The warm, stained hue is original. A professional furniture restorer has completely restored the tea car. Impeccable condition, all traces of use were repaired and all parts were freshly painted. Turn the castors and run perfectly. Length 70cm. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
