About the Item

Crafted from the finest teak wood, this modular Wall Unit features a sophisticated system of pressure mounting between the floor and ceiling, ensuring stability and adaptability to any space. The combination of teak wood and iron creates a harmonious blend of natural warmth and industrial charm, making it a truly versatile addition to any interior. The attention to detail is apparent in the meticulous restyling and embellishment of this piece. Brass sheets, skillfully added to the original design, now adorn the doors, showcasing a stunning contrast with the teak wood. The burnished finish of the brass imparts a touch of vintage allure and adds an element of visual intrigue to the bookcase. It is worth noting that the appearance of the burnished brass might slightly vary from the photos, as the bookcase has been recently restocked and the patina can change subtly with each piece. Composed of two sturdy vertical supports, this bookcase boasts a cabinet with beautifully decorated brass-embellished doors that swing open gracefully. Within, you will find three spacious shelves, providing ample room to showcase your treasured book collection or display cherished decorative items. One of the standout features of this bookcase is its adjustable height mechanism, allowing you to effortlessly adapt the bookcase to fit varying ceiling heights. Whether you have soaring ceilings or a cozy space, this bookcase can be customized to create a perfect fit. Dating back to the 1950s, this midcentury gem encapsulates the timeless appeal of Italian design. The skillfully designed doors, now enhanced with the addition of brass sheets, exude an air of sophistication and elevate the overall aesthetic of the bookcase. This fully restored and meticulously crafted teak bookshelf, with its captivating combination of wood, iron, and the added embellishment of brass sheets, exemplifies the impeccable quality and style synonymous with midcentury Italian design.

By Poul Cadovius

Located in Asaa, DK

Danish Modular Royal Teak Wall Unit by Poul Cadovius for Cado, 1950s. Mid-Century Modern 4 bay shelving system model Royal.
