Vintage cabinet designed by William Watting for the brand Fristho (Friesche Stoel and Houtwarenfabriek). This box from the beginning 60's is beautifully shaped and made of high quality wood.

 

The cabinet has plenty of storage space. On the left side are 2 shelves. At the bottom are 2 doors with a shelf behind them. The trapdoor with recognizable shaped handle hides a bar cabinet with 2 drawers underneath.

 

Fristho was founded in 1920 and started mainly with the production of chairs and small furniture. The crisis in the 1930s hit the company hard. After the difficult reconstruction years, it was decided to make furniture that fit the 'mid-century modern' style. Both the American William Watting and the Danish Inger Klingenberg both made significant contributions as designers to the Scandinavian and contemporary design of the 1950s and 1960s.

 

Unfortunately, the company went bankrupt in April 1978, partly due to competition from the very modern German furniture factories.

 

Unfortunately, due to its size, weight and/or fragility, this item cannot be shipped
