Edges that never change colour. A clear sign along with tHe small handles used by ps system designed by preen Sorensen hence the name ps system produced by randers mobler

PS Systems
are Danish, but I'll bet money the hardboard backing was produced in Sweden, right?

PS Systems
I have quite a few of those. Looks exactly like PS Systems to me.

If the piece
was of the highest quality (i.e., low production), the grain of the doors would be balanced. That is, the pair of figures on the left-hand door -- two out of three leaves of veneer -- would have been matched by having the mirror pair of leaves on the far right, not at the center. A minor point, and nothing to reduce the loveliness of the veneer, or of the cabinet.

Not necessarily so...
Normally, I would agree that grain matched doors is a sign of a higher quality (lower production) piece, and it's certainly something to look for in terms of aesthetics. However, I just checked my PS System cabinets, which are exactly the same as the one above with the L-shaped brackets on the back, and on all 3 pieces the doors are grain matched - perfect mirror images. While these boxes have obviously been around for a couple decades, I wouldn't say they are high quality. They are just run-of-the-mill veneered particle board, but certainly better than IKEA.

It thin
The original question has more then been answered....
But the doors issue could be a mismatch from another cabinet as there may have been more as to have a single cabinet is a bit odd
