About This Piece

Vintage Design

An incredibly elegant and stylish sideboard with all the typical details that the Danes were masters of!

The sideboard combines both function and aesthetics in a way that really catches your attention and there is absolutely nothing to get tired of!

The designer of the sideboard is George Tanier, a well-regarded designer for Sibast in Denmark. Sibast has a long tradition of creating incredibly fine and timeless furniture, which includes works by the legendary Arne Vodder. The design language and design aesthetics of Sibast are clearly reflected in this elegant sideboard! It stands out with its elegant louvered doors, which are carefully and with great precision executed. The interior is both beautiful and functional, and the round, slender legs contribute to a stylish silhouette. In addition, the integrated handles are a smart detail that reinforces the minimalist expression - all in a harmonious unit.

The furniture is made of teak and has two louvered doors that are adorned with a beautiful grain. The doors are manufactured with such fine precision that they appear to be created in one piece, without any visible joints, which really enhances the impression of the furniture. The doors have integrated handles, which both facilitate use and contribute to the stylish appearance.The doors have integrated handles, which both facilitate use and contribute to the stylish appearance. The louvered doors not only make it easy to access the cabinet even in the tightest spaces, but they also enhance the elegant expression that characterizes the entire piece of furniture. It is a perfect combination of functionality and aesthetics, which means that the furniture fits into both modern and classic interiors.

The cabinets have a total of three shelves that are both movable and removable, which gives great flexibility in how you can organize your storage space. In addition, there are three practical drawers that offer extra storage options for smaller items, which allows you to keep the cabinets both functional and tidy.

The legs are round and tapered and are easy to unscrew for transport.

The height of the sideboard makes it perfect for use as modern media storage, but it also works as a traditional storage solution and for displaying trinkets and other objects. ???? The furniture is also unusually slim in length for a Danish sideboard, which makes it fit well into various home environments. Most sideboards are otherwise around 240-245 cm long, which can be too bulky in smaller rooms. with this sideboard you get a stylish and practical piece of furniture that is not only functional, but also contributes to an elegant interior.

200x50x80 cm.

In very good condition with few signs of wear on the outside. The only thing to mention is that the green felt in the drawers is a little worn.

About the Maker

Sibast

Danish furniture manufacturer Sibast began in 1908 when cabinetmaker Peder Olsen Sibast opened a woodworking atelier on Denmark’s island of Funen. The family-owned company steadily expanded throughout the first half of the 20th century. In 1943, Sibast’s children, Emma, Ole, and Helge, took the reins, and together they carried Sibast to international acclaim. According to Anna Sibast, great-granddaughter-in-law of the company’s founder, “Emma was in administration, taking care of the finances and the employees’ wellbeing. Ole played a big role in selling, for example, to Hilton Hotels and the White House, to name a few. And Helge was the driving force in the design and production side of the business.” In the postwar era, Sibast became one of Denmark’s largest producers of fine wood chairs, tables, and sideboards, celebrated for high quality craftsmanship and modernist silhouettes.

Helge Sibast apprenticed under his father and was responsible for a many of the company’s most successful designs, including No. 7 Chair and No. 8 Chair (both 1953). He also commissioned a number of top Danish designers of the day, like Grete Jalk, to develop Sibast lines. Arne Vodder, in particular, collaborated with Sibast frequently between the 1950s and ‘70s. Notably, in 1957, Vodder was awarded first prize at the X Triennale di Milano for his No. 29A Sideboard for Sibast.

The taste for Danish modern furniture waned by the 1980s, and Sibast declined. In 1984, the Sibast family sold the business—a year before Helge passed away—but wisely retained the copyright to many of its most popular designs. In 2012, the fourth Sibast generation, Ditlev and his wife Anna, revived the company, which today produces a few of the most iconic Sibast designs from the midcentury, along with a few new ones that carry on the same spirit.
