Title: Restored Danish Modern Cabinet / Buffet / Credenza by Carlo Jensen for Hundevad and Co., Denmark, c. 1960s
About: Introducing a freshly restored compact credenza designed by Carlo Jensen for Hundevad & Co. Audacious in scope, design and materials utilized this extraordinary Danish-made credenza is as functional as it is visually arresting. Constructed from a mix of solid and matchbook-veneered Brazilian rosewood this striking sideboard is ideal for collectors and designers alike who are limited in space but unwilling to compromise on style and functionality. Featuring two hinged doors with finished surfaces, four drawers and two adjustable shelves and replete with exceptional old-growth variegated woodgrains unique to the rosewood species this versatile piece in many ways represents the zenith of Danish Modern Design.
Carlo Jensen was a Danish furniture designer who was active during the mid-20th century. He is best known for his minimalist and functional designs, which were characterized by their use of high-quality materials such as teak, rosewood, and leather. Jensen's designs often incorporated innovative features and clean, geometric forms, and were highly influenced by the modernist design movements of the mid-20th century. Overall, Carlo Jensen was an important figure in the world of Danish furniture design during the mid-20th century, and his innovative and functional designs continue to be admired and collected by enthusiasts and collectors to this day.
The devil is truly in the details in this piece. The interior is beautifully finished, even the inner doors are matchbook-veneered. To add extra detail to the design, the legs are pulled slightly under the sideboard to account for skirting, making it possible to place the piece close to the wall. The two doors open and close via a set of magnetic pop in and out fasteners. Even the drawers are adjustable allowing the owner maximum storage capacity. Recently restored this piece is ideal for designers and collectors searching for an authentic, Danish-made case piece that is ready for a literal lifetime more of use. Make it yours today before it's truly gone forever.
Origin: Denmark
Proof: Signed
Period: 1960s
Material: Rosewood | Brass
State: Full Restoration
Condition Details: This petite Danish-made credenza has recently undergone a comprehensive restoration process. The mix of solid and veneered rosewood composition has been hand-sanded and refinished however some signs of wear remain such as small veneer repairs as well as some surface scratches and small pressure dings that remain after sanding (all shown in detail in the photos provided). With that said the rosewood still remains in overall very good shape and the woodgrains remain stunning in natural light.
The two hinged doors have been fabricated to open and close with ease via new magnetic locking devices as the keys, which originally functioned as pulls, have been lost to time. Each of the two shelves are adjustable as are the four storage drawers.
This alluring low profile credenza is ultra-functional, structurally sound and ready for a lifetime more of use thanks to it's recent restoration process. Please view all photos and natural light video provided for details on this piece's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
