This elegant sideboard was produced by Pohl & Schröder, Wuppertal, and is a prime example of German industrial design of the 1960s.
With its clear design language, robust steel body, and characteristic sliding doors made of textured ornamental glass, it embodies the functionalist approach of post-war modernism – sober, durable, and uncompromisingly practical.
The red linoleum top provides a subtle color accent and lends the piece a warm, architectural touch. The gray metal frame and translucent glass surfaces create an appealing contrast between industrial aesthetics and fine craftsmanship.
Originally designed for offices, laboratories, and architects' studios, this sideboard is now a sought-after collector's item and a functional statement in modern interiors. It offers generous storage space on two levels behind the sliding doors and impresses with its high-quality craftsmanship.
