Vintage Minimalist Sideboard Modell B40 in Rosewood by Dieter Waeckerlin Behr, Germany 1950s

Dimensions 248x56x70 cm (WxDxH) Elegant Dieter Wäckerlin sideboard in veneer with a strong yet regular grain. The minimalist sideboard sits on a chrome coated metal base. Inlay made out of maple. This is a rare later version of the big B40 sideboard. Wäckerlin was a cabinet maker, interior architect and furniture designer from Switzerland. His mid-century furniture is characterized by a puristic design language, especially visible in his famous sideboards. He developed furniture systems with Le Corbusier and became known for his collaboration with manufacturer Behr in Osnabrück. The sideboard comes in wonderful condition with only minor traces of use, some scratches on the top (right side) , some very tiny marks on the edges, nothing that detracts. The chrome base is rather matt. The top has been refinished. Overall appearance presents beautifully.
