Designer retired carpenter (name unknown)

1980s Nehterlands

H 100cm W 220cm D 45cm

This extraordinary cabinet is a one-of-a-kind piece, handmade in the 1980s by a retired master carpenter whose attention to detail and passion for craft shine through every surface. A stunning fusion of bold geometry and precision joinery, the design draws clear inspiration from the iconic Memphis movement—with its angular form, unconventional silhouette, and sculptural presence.

Features:

  • Design: Memphis-inspired with striking diagonal lines, exaggerated forms, and a playful yet disciplined sense of proportion. The sharply angled legs and “floating” body lend it a surreal architectural character that’s both functional and expressive.
  • Material: Made from solid birch plywood with a natural satin finish that highlights the intricate wood grain and layered edgework.
  • Storage: Four smoothly gliding drawers and two spacious cabinets provide ample hidden storage while maintaining a clean, sculptural front.
  • Details: Precision miter joints, visible laminated plywood edging, and custom aluminum pulls elevate this piece.

Excellent vintage condition. Minor age-related wear adds character without compromising structure or aesthetics. Fully functional and beautifully preserved.

Channeling the rebellious spirit of the Memphis Group—without the bright colors—this cabinet is a refined interpretation of postmodern design. Its asymmetric angles and playful proportions feel just as daring today as they did when it was first made. A true collector’s piece that blends mid-century craftsmanship with avant-garde artistry.
