Mid-century Mahogany Tambour Door Sideboard by Ole Wanscher for A.J. Iversen of Denmark. Professionally Restored. 79”L x 20”D x 33”H.
An extraordinary masterpiece of Scandinavian design, this mid-century modern credenza represents the apex of collaboration between design icon Ole Wanscher and Denmark’s premier master cabinetmaker, A.J. Iversen. Crafted in Copenhagen during the 1940s–1950s, this exceptionally rare model is built from premium mahogany, showcasing a rich, deep grain pattern and immaculate craftsmanship.
The sideboard features a symmetrical façade centered by five smooth-sliding drawers fitted with cast brass drop-pull hardware. The top drawer functions via its original brass keyhole and accompanying skeleton key. Flanking the center tier are two flawlessly engineered vertical-slatted tambour (“jalousie”) doors. These doors effortlessly glide into the interior recesses of the cabinet casing, revealing ample interior storage while retaining a perfectly clean geometric profile when open. The case is elevated by an elegant, open architectural trestle base with square tapered legs and an H-stretcher frame. It also feature.
Adding extra provenance and collectible value, the reverse of this piece features the original metal retailer plate from Illums Bolighus, København—Denmark’s legendary luxury design department store—confirming its historical distribution directly from the heart of Danish modernism.
