I've recently purchased some dining room furniture, 6 chairs (that I believe to be Harry Ostergaard that I've shown in another thread), a Walter of Wabash table, and a large 80" credenza that is either Scandinavian or Danish that I'm hoping somebody can help ID for me. It's teak / teak veneer construction and I didn't notice any marking / stamps on it. I've found a few other credenzas that are identical. I don't have the credenza in my possession yet (couldn't fit it in my Subaru) but attached are some pictures the exact credenza that I am talking about. Also, if anybody has any info on Walter of Wabash, please chime in since I've never heard of Walter or been to Wabash...

Middle to middle-low end Danish furniture manufacturer.
I've seen some decent quality pieces from them, but also plenty of veneer on particle board.
On a side note, does anyone know roughly when veneer on particle board (versus solid hardwood substrate) started appearing on some Danish pieces?
Dyrlund as a company is still going. These days they seem to produce a lot of very masculine 80's looking executive furniture which I do not care for.
The vintage pieces I have had have been very good quality, in many cases the quality of many Dyrlund pieces has been equal if not better than the high end Danish manufacturers I have seen.
There are some very desirable and collectable pieces such as the Flip Flap table and the folding drinks cabinet/bar.
I would't say that the use of particle board was an instant indicator of lesser quality. Many very good quality Danish furniture companies used veneer over particle board.
I know this post is old, but I'm hoping someone can help me. I have the smaller version of this credenza and I'm looking for a door pull/handle that I can purchase separately to replace the one that is missing on mine. Does anyone here have any idea where/how I can go about finding one?
