Extremely rare version of the R40 cabinets. Probably custom-made for a client’s office in the 1970s. Both cabinets are signed. One cabinet can be closed because it has a lock. The original key is present. The use of large pieces of solid elm gives the cabinets a very calm, natural feeling. The wood has beautiful grain and patterns that stand out on the large surfaces on all sides. The slender, wide legs are unusual in their shape but balance the design perfectly both visually and physically. Perfect for office use, or combined as a small credenza, or also as nightstands. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
