VINTAGE SIDEBOARDS - SECOND CHARM MIDCENTURY MODERN COLLECTIONS

Dear All

Here is the  third attachment of our midcentury modern furniture collections. We feature here vintage sideboards of the early 50's - 70's. Interestingly, you see some blending of the art deco 50's with the retro style of the 60's in  some of the pieces, indicating a transition period that cannot be easily demarcated, which make them all the more valuable in terms of historical interest.

For those looking for a sideboard or a television console, try not to go for those laminated built-in made of plywood or chipboard (they are not cheap either). Sideboard is an integral part to a living and dining hall.  A beautiful  vintage sideboard can be a statement piece. Combining vintage beauty with practicality is really the essence of wise furnishing.  When you see the sideboards below, you understand why.

  

Pure elegance. Long, slender sideboard of the 60's-70's, solid teak wood.

The beauty of midcentury piece must be viewed from the sides too, as

you get to see the the slim slender pencil legs in a better perspective.

Another  midcentury modern sideboard.  Solid teak. Taken  up by Naz, despite the fact

 he couldnt see it full view as it was partially hidden.  It must be his retro instinct, 

to immediately recognize  a handsome retro piece, when he sees one.
