I'm considering buying these two rosewood nightstands. They look like Arne Vodder (mainly due to the drawers) but I've never seen this model before.
I've looked through FurnitureIndex and all of my books but to no avail.
Now I'm hoping a DA member might have an old catalogue from Sibast Møbler that can provide the documentation I need to feel secure about the purchase.
While the nightstands are very nice, I would hate to pay extra for something that's not Arne Vodder but merely inspired by him.
Please view the picture below. Thank you and Merry Christmas! 🙂

Hi, Althought I have no idea if Vodder is actually the designer of your nightstands, I do not think the maker is Sibast.
There is a very similar nighstand on eBay France. It is also attributed to Vodder and has a sticker. The maker is NC Møbler Odense.

They are not Vodder. And if it is a dealer selling you these as Vodder, they should know better, as those drawer fronts are the same as this well known and commonly misattributed sideboard made by Skovby:
