Mid-Century Modern Teak Chest of Drawers by Schreiber, 1960s – Vintage Sustainable Design

$408.08

This classic mid-century Schreiber chest of drawers dates from the early 1960s and captures the clean lines and functional elegance of the era. Crafted in warm teak veneer, it offers five spacious drawers with solid wooden interiors—clean, odour-free, and ready to use.

This is a second-hand vintage piece with honest signs of age and wear. The most notable flaws are some veneer chips to the back corner and a filled chip on the top surface. Other general wear and tear is present, but does not detract from the integrity or charm of the chest. It remains structurally sound, usable and full of life.
