Description
This set of two Danish tall boy cabinets was manufactured during the 1960s. A tall, rectangular shape is mounted on turned legs. The front is decorated with black and white painting, the pattern of which merges with the natural color of the wood, consistent with the sides and the top. The simplicity of the Danish design rules out the use of any handles, so the door is opened through a hidden recess on the edge. There are shelves inside. The production labels with the words Made in Denmark have survived on the back plate.
This set has been partially restored keeping it’s natural patina. This is a piece of furniture finished according to the rules of the Upcycled Vintage course. Its form is original and dates from the 20th century, but the final finish has been changed by artistic invention or composition of parts from different original object. All treatment are performed by traditional methods, are consistent with the aesthetic of the age from which the furniture comes from and support the Zero Waste idea.
