{"product_id":"rosewood-sideboard-by-clausen-son-for-cfc-silkeborg","title":"Danish Modern Rosewood Credenza by Clausen \u0026 Son, Denmark, 1960s","description":"\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAn exceptional Danish Mid-Century Modern rosewood sideboard by \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eClausen \u0026amp; Son\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, dating to the 1960s. Beautifully proportioned at nearly 79 inches long, this substantial credenza combines restrained Scandinavian modernism with some of the most dramatic rosewood figuring we have seen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe rosewood is really the star of the piece. Richly figured and carefully selected veneers create striking, almost symmetrical patterns across the sliding doors and four drawer fronts. Deep chocolate brown, amber, and warm reddish tones move through the grain, giving the cabinet tremendous depth and character. The grain selection across the drawers is particularly beautiful, with each front becoming almost a composition of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe asymmetrical facade gives the sideboard a distinctly architectural presence. Two large sliding bypass doors occupy the left and center sections, while a bank of \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003efour generously sized drawers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e balances the composition on the right. The sliding-door construction is particularly practical, providing substantial storage without requiring additional clearance in front of the cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eBehind the doors are versatile storage compartments, including an adjustable shelf as well as two beautifully constructed \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003epull-out serving trays\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e. These trays provide an excellent surface for bottles, glassware, serving pieces, or bar accessories, making the cabinet equally suited for use as a traditional sideboard, dining-room credenza, media cabinet, or sophisticated dry bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eOne of our favorite details is the hardware. Both the sliding doors and drawers feature Clausen \u0026amp; Son’s beautifully sculpted \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003einset rosewood pulls\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e. Their elongated capsule or bow-tie form is carved directly into the visual language of the cabinet rather than applied as separate metal hardware—a small detail that speaks to the quality and restraint of Danish furniture making during this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe case rests on a long, recessed rosewood base with slender cylindrical legs, creating a light, almost floating appearance despite the sideboard’s substantial scale. From the beautifully framed facade to the carefully finished end panels, the cabinet demonstrates the attention to proportion, material and craftsmanship that made Danish furniture of the 1950s and 1960s so enduring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe sideboard retains its \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDanish Furnituremakers’ Control\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e mark, an important period designation associated with Danish furniture manufactured to established standards of materials and workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eProfessionally restored by \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHobbs Modern\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, the rosewood has been carefully brought back to its original richness and luster while preserving the character of the vintage piece. The result is extraordinary: the restoration reveals the depth, movement and natural chatoyance of the old-growth rosewood without making the cabinet appear overly refinished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAt nearly 6½ feet long, this is a commanding piece of Danish design, but its low profile, slender legs and exceptionally clean lines keep it visually elegant. The combination of \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ehighly figured rosewood, sculpted integral pulls, sliding doors, pull-out trays, four drawers and excellent craftsmanship\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e makes this a particularly desirable example of 1960s Scandinavian cabinetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eA true heirloom-quality piece and an outstanding statement credenza for a dining room, living room, office, or design-focused interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesigner \/ Manufacturer:\u003c\/b\u003e Clausen \u0026amp; Son\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Denmark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e 1960s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Danish Modern \/ Scandinavian Modern \/ Mid-Century Modern\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Professionally restored by Hobbs Modern\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e78.75” L × 18.5” D × 30” H\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hobbs Modern","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48936668332085,"sku":"HM-260921-477","price":7995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/5534\/3925\/files\/RosewoodSideboardbyClausen_SonforCFCSilkeborg-43.jpg?v=1793766165","url":"https:\/\/hobbsmodern.com\/products\/rosewood-sideboard-by-clausen-son-for-cfc-silkeborg","provider":"Hobbs Modern","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
