Description
This is a very stylish vintage sideboard with beautiful grain patterns to the wood. Made by renowned mid century maker Jentique, in the 1960s, this sideboard has a bank of three drawers to its centre, the top one with felt lined cutlery dividers. To the right and left of the drawers sit 2 shelved cupboard spaces. The sliding doors are both attractive to look at and are a space-saving feature as they don’t open out into your room space. An excellent piece of vintage furniture, this teak sideboard is perfect for any modern living space.
Jentique Furniture was a mid-century English firm that followed the Danish-design taste of the times. Before founding Jentique, Geoffrey Jenkins was well known as a toymaker. In 1932, he designed a water driven hydraulic toothbrush. It was destined for failure. While the “Kavor” toothbrush didn’t find a market, Jenkins did succeed with a well manufactured gramophone. It was the gramophone that led him to focus on furniture-making under the name Jentique Furniture. During the late 1950s and 60s Jentique specialised in modern, contemporary furniture. It capitalised on the trend toward clean Danish lines. Today, Jentique furniture from the mid century retro period has become prized for its elegant proportions, attractive design and excellent build quality.
In super original vintage condition with, as you’d expect, some small signs of age and use.
