More pics... Gordon Russell or perhaps Danish? Please help solve the mystery of the Sideboard with silver handles!

This sideboard is now driving us a little crazy... it appears Danish, but the inside construction (to us) appears British. We've trawled all our archives, but can't find anything similar. Gordon Russell did use thick set handles like these on some models, but if they had silver handles they usually had silver feet too. And surely it would have the Gordon Russell badge or some identification on it...? A few Danish makers did use silver handles on sideboards, but we can't find any of this style, and again, no badge/stamp - unless it had a Skovby sticker that was removed? It's certainly testing us this one!

ANY HELP APPRECIATED!

Quick observations based on your not-so-great photos:

Drawer is not side-hung and sides appear as possibly plane or sycamore and bottom as maybe lauan.

Stopped dado for interior shelf looks a bit sloppy.

My guess is not Danish, later ('70's) mid-market production.
