The lower section is enclosed behind two panelled doors, featuring Nathan's distinctive geometric square pattern. This eye-catching detail adds texture and character while concealing useful storage space inside.
Crafted from warm, naturally grained teak, the beautiful wood grain gives this compact cabinet a rich and inviting appearance. Its clean lines, geometric detailing and elegant proportions reflect the strong influence of Scandinavian and Danish modern design that became so popular during the 1960s.
With a width of just 87 cm and a depth of only 27 cm, this is a fantastic space-saving piece for smaller homes, apartments, hallways, bedrooms or living spaces where every centimetre counts.
