Unfortunately, I can't read the stamp. Any idea who designed / made it? Thanks a lot in advance!

Is there some futuristic Captcha technology scan thing that can be applied?
That is illegible!

looks like "Gern Mobelfabrik"...
looks like "Gern Mobelfabrik" to me (the stamp that is, not recognition of the design)

Bingo!
Here's a clearer photo of the Gern stamp from a Lauritz listing.
Ejvind A. Johansson did some designs for Gern, but I did not see this dresser after a (very) quick search.

Well, after a little longer search . . .
. . . looks like the pulls are similar with this listed Johansson piece. However, not too sure what they based their attribution on.

I really like this piece. ...
I really like this piece. And I'd never heard of Gern Møbelfabrik before. And barely of Ejvind Johansson.
Nice work CD!
It would be nice if we could prove the design attribution to Ejvind Johansson. (He is probably a Swede with that last name right?)
edit: the internet seems to suggest that he was a Dane, in spite of the Swedish last name.

It would be lovely to think that the best designs always won out. But this dresser really illustrates how deeply false to reality that thought is.
