Identification of sideboard  

Very interesting, thanks a lot for your effort, Leif.
By the way I want to sell it, but no shipment to USA! 🙂
Thanks to all for your help!

I always like the opportunity to learn more about Aasbjerg pieces. So thank you.

Speaking of Aasbjerg, I think you might be interrested this ad (1961)

Thank you Leif for solving the mystery surrounding this custom Aasbjerg piece. Very interesting that it originally matched a couch. Regarding your request - yes, I should post some pics. I actually have a few questions on a credenza that I thought you could answer. None of my pieces are marked, but as you say, his work is his own signature. I will try to post in the big Aasbjerg thread shortly. Let me echo others and say thank you for sharing all your knowledge here - it remains the best information out there on Aasbjerg's stunning pieces.

Dr Poulet: Thank you for posting that. I just saved it. What is catalog/magazine, etc is that from? I have never seen an Aasbjerg & Ørtoft advert before, so I am very interested. Also, that blanket chest is one piece I would really like to find, so it hits me doubly.
Bluebrick: looking forward to seeing the photos. If I don't know the answer, I can probably find it out.

Leif, glad you like it. The ad is from Mobilia, issue 70, May 1961.

Could this be the chest?

I realy wanted to buy this last year, but forgot to bid at the end of the auction.
Had no clue who designed it, just liked it alot and it was super quality.

Hot D#$%^&* that is good looking!
That isn't the same chest as in the advertisement and catalog, but it might be Aasbjerg anyway. There are a few differences from what I am used to seeing, but as this sideboard illustrates, a few differences might still be close enough.
Differences:
It is not actually teak. Solid rosewood. And unless I am mistaken that is one solid board top to bottom.
the dovetail scribe marks are still visible on the outside of the chest (Aasbjerg's are visible inside, but not out)
Never seen those legs on an Aabjerg, but this doesn't mean much as he used a LOT of different legs.
All that said, this could easily be a custom piece, or from later (or earlier). I have seen the 1959, 1960, and 1962 catalogs, which does not everything. And it could have been made by his son as well. I have seen one similar piece by his son.
Here is another photo of the Aasbjerg chest from the 1962 catalog:

This is a later piece by his son from the 1970s or so. It is a fold open coffee table/storage box. The lid folds down the middle. Note he cut the same dovetails as his father and uncle:

I'm glad I was able to make an educated guess! I feel this means I have a chance of finding one in the wild. Plus, as silly as this sounds I would never have bought my Finn Juhl BO-101 if I didn't think it was Aasperjerg first. Thanks for all the knowledge guys.

As I said, his construction is his signature. So, despite the fact that they are very, very rare, when you see one, you know it. You will find one Therye. Go someone that US Air Force pilots from the 1960s retired, and you will maximize your chances.
The only ones that are a bit harder to spot are the less expensive veneer versions he did of most (all) his designs. They obviously don't have the dovetails. I have a couple of these pieces, and I always had expected they would be particle board substrate, but they are not. They are actually a solid pine substrate, so they are very light (and strong), and still have to be made to accommodate for wood movement. Of course, the designs are already built for wood movement, so it was not very inconvenient to allow for wood movement.

I thought you would like that one Leif.
I am realy bummed that i missed it, i just liked the way it looked and how it was made (very well!).
But great to possibly get a name on who made it as well!

@ Leif. I just realized that the picture from the Aasbjerg ad I have posted is taken from an article about a furniture shop called Imperial Møbler in Copenhagen (in the very same issue of Mobilia).
As you like the chest, I am posting a couple of pictures of the article where you can see it.
Obviously, Aasbjerg did not have too much money to invest in advertisement...

Interesting! I did not realize that any Aasbjerg pieces aside from his 'Langbord' coffee table/bench were distributed in other stores.
I would be curious to see the text of the article.

Here is the full article. I hope it is readable and that the english translation is more understandable than the french one.
