Herbert E. Gibbs Vintage Narrow Sideboard #44958

This thin glass sideboard was designed in the mid-century by British manufacturer Herbert E. Gibbs.

This slim type is ideal for displaying small paperback books, tableware, collections, etc.

Made from teak, a rare, high-quality material, the warm brown wood grain is impressive. This vintage furniture is practical yet shows the maker's attention to detail, and goes well with vintage Scandinavian items.

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.
