Description
Visually appealing and extremely functional, this shelving system in teak was designed in the style of 1960s projects by Poul Cadovius for Cado.
The wall unit is crafted from warm-hued teak wood, showcasing beautiful grain patterns. Attention to detail and the artistry of Danish craftsmanship are especially evident in the meticulously hand-woven front of the drop-door cabinet. This way of embellishing cabinets is extremely rare and requires a lot of work from the makers.
One deep shelf is designed to be used as a compact desk, or can be used for dispolaying large obejects. Thanks to this practical addition, the wall unit can be used for creating an excellent home-office space in your studio or a bedroom without compromising on style or space.
This shelving system is entirely modular; all parts can be interchanged and set up as desired, lower, higher, using an easy system with brass hangers inserted into solid wood rails. The shown setup is just an example.
The set consists of:
- a cabinet: H: 34 / W: 80 / D: 37 (depth when fully opened: 67 cm)
- 8 shelves: W: 80 / D: 20 cm
- a compact desk: W: 80 / D: 45 cm
- 6 wooden rails: each measuring 100 cm in length
The use of six shorter rails instead of the three longer ones expands arrangement options even more. Also lowers the shipping costs.
The wall unit has been upcycled. We have carried out a thorough renovation. We have have used old and new parts to revive this shelving system. All the wood is sanded down, and coats of stain are applied to create a uniform look. It is finished with Danish oil. If necessary, we replace the damaged veneer to improve the appearance. The rails are redone according to the originals. The hardware has been polished.
