I've looked it over completely and there are zero makers marks. The drawer fronts are solid with very nice dovetail joints. There is no particle or fiber board in the construction. the drawer glides are wood. the top drawer is felt lined. looks to be very solid and a good quality piece. And the back is finished.
Its not my favorite piece by a mile, but for $40 I thought it was worth it.
Any info as to maker? Sorry about the poor picture.
Thanks
Oh I am sure there is...
Oh I am sure there is particle board lurking just beneath the veneer. The things that lurk in the hearts of men, and their credenzas.
But I am drawn to this business of seeing miracles in firewood. I wonder where do they preach this religion? Maybe in the scandinavian furniture warehouses of yesterday, the thrift stores of today, and the mid-mod boutiques of tomorrow. Better living through designer transubstantiation. What a thought! "Miraculous" hardly does it justice.
And to think you would light the pyre only to warm your fingers, even in jest, SDR, when there is so much more.
Did you look inside all the drawers for marks?
Sometimes there's a label or incised mark on the inside surface of the side of a drawer.
It's a useful piece of furniture for $40 but the plinth base indicates that it's a lower end design and probably not terribly old.
I wonder, did D-Scan of Thailand make sideboards? I've seen lots of Thailand-made teak chairs in the Danish style but haven't noticed sideboards.
It looks like something Scan would have sold in the recent past, before they folded.
Since when does a plinth...
Since when does a plinth base indicate a piece of furniture is 'low end'?
I own a Børge Mogensen rosewood wall unit with a plinth base that was made in 1947 and is beautifully crafted. Definitely not a low end piece of furniture.
JustinSprung, look into Skovby as it looks like something they might have manufactured.
