Austinsuite / UK Austinsuite Vintage Teak Wood High Sideboard #36179

This is a vintage high sideboard made by Austinsuite, a British mid-century furniture maker.

This tall sideboard is taller than a typical sideboard and has a large storage capacity. The open storage space allows you to enjoy displaying your items, and it can be used for a variety of purposes, such as a cupboard, auxiliary storage in the living room, or a bookshelf and desk in your study. With its glossy carved handles resembling a conch shell and tapered legs with a pointed toe, this is a simple design that is functional and unique.

After the war, modern Scandinavian design became very popular, and Scandinavian-style furniture began to be made in the UK as well. The UK's high level of technology and production capacity, which had a foundation in traditional furniture making, made it possible to produce high-quality furniture. Representative British manufacturers include G-PLAN, which was one of the first to adopt Danish design, and the long-established Scottish manufacturers AHMcIntosh and Nathan. There were also many other excellent Scandinavian-style furniture manufacturers. Scandinavian-style furniture made in the UK during the mid-century period is still highly regarded today for its quality and design that is comparable to authentic Scandinavian furniture, and has become increasingly popular in recent years.
