Hello, I'm curious about the following ebay offering and whether or not it's a legitimate system. It is referred to both as a H.G (Hansen/Guldborg) unit and then as a Cadovius wall system. Just not sure what to think and don't know enough to properly ID the photos.
Thank you for any help

This is not a Cado, nor designed by Cadovius. I do not think it is an HG system either because of the wire shelf supports, although HG does rarely have bypass door cabinets with these oblong, pill shaped handles. The PS system has wire supports that look like these, but the handles on its bypass doors are different.
I would guess it is most likely none of the above. There are other wall units, some of them barely known.

Similar wall rails and brass hangers to the Bruksbo Veggen system, but not an exact match.

Thank you. The seller says the cabinets are marked HG and made in Denmark on the back of each cabinet. I can't find a good online photo of a Hansen Guldborg wall unit.
Kind regards and happy holidays.

Well then the case pieces are HG (Hansen and Guldborg). Here is one of the much less common case pieces with oblong handles:

I kind of wonder if the rails and shelves are for a different system, because I've don't see any HG system with metal hangers. Although perhaps HG made an even less common wall unit with metal hangers and I've just never seen it.

I saw the unit. All the cabinets and shelves are marked HG with made in Denmark. Some cabinets had a round pull. They came from a unit that once had wood paneling behind. The wall brackets are not original and the beautiful wood panels discarded. Some unconventional hanging of the cabinets but lots of hardware in place. Does anyone have a suggested price for three cabinets and five shelves?
Many thanks again? If anyone has a good link/resource for HG units and pricing happy to do the leg work.
Kind regards
