I’m trying to find a design name for a Kai Kristiansen nightstand. I bought it in the mid 1990s from Scan Contemporary Furniture in the DC area. I would love to find a matching one.

Did Scan sell this new in the 90’s with a KK attribution?

If you try to find a matching one, stop looking for Kai Kristiansen nightstands.

I don’t know if Scan attributed it to KK. I got Kai Kristiansen from the marking on the interior. Am I incorrect in the manufacturer?

@matthew-whalen, The green ink stamp visible in your photo has nothing to do with the furniture manufacturer or designer. The table itself exhibits traits common to mass-produced furnishings widely available in N America.
