This unquestionably elegant highboard is well-proportioned, offering three types of storage space - open, closed, and drawers - and is crafted in very pleasant teak veneer. It also boasts simple and sculptural solid wood handles. Yet, the first thing you notice are the 45º chamfers on its four corners. This little detail sets this piece apart from other highboards, sideboards, and credenzas. It's not too much to imagine Kubrick using it in "2001: A Space Odyssey" had he done the spacecraft in wood veneer. The body rests upon four thin legs, giving it a floating feeling. The choices in material, proportions, and dimensions made by the unknown designer ensure that this piece pleases the eye without dominating whatever's around, which is no small feat for a highboard.
