Pair of MCM 3 Drawer Teak Bedside Cabinets by Steens, Denmark – Glowing Grain & Timeless Scandinavian Design

A beautifully crafted pair of mid-century teak bedside cabinets by Steens of Denmark, showcasing the clean lines, functionality and natural warmth that Scandinavian design is celebrated for. It’s becoming more of a rarity to find matching pairs, making these a particularly desirable option for creating a cohesive and stylish bedroom scheme — a Mid-Century Modern collector’s dream.

Each cabinet features three smooth-gliding drawers with elegant sculpted integrated handles, framed by richly toned teak veneers with exceptional grain patterning and a glowing, honeyed finish. Their compact size makes them ideal bedside companions, but they also work beautifully as side tables or accent pieces in living spaces, hallways or home offices.

The original Steens maker’s label remains attached on the back, confirming their provenance. These cabinets have been professionally cleaned and oiled, allowing the wood to shine and ensuring they’re ready for many more decades of use.

Founded in Denmark, Steens became known during the mid-20th century for producing high-quality furniture that blended modern Danish design principles with excellent craftsmanship. Their pieces are admired for their warm teak finishes, precise detailing, and enduring functionality — making them a favourite among collectors and interior designers today.
