ABOUT PRODUCTID 28285
This chest of drawers, designed by Günter Renkel for Rego in the 1960s, exemplifies the German interpretation of mid-century modern design. The body is crafted from teak veneer with pronounced, natural wood grain and a matte-satin finish in a warm, medium brown with a subtle reddish undertone. Two sliding doors align flush with the frame, each fitted with a small, round black knob as a discreet accent. The chest stands on a black, powder-coated steel base with four square-section legs, each ending in a round metal foot, joined by a horizontal steel stretcher for added stability and visual lightness. The proportions are low and wide (95 × 29 × 57 cm), and a single interior shelf enhances the storage possibilities. The design is defined by restrained, geometric lines and an absence of decorative ornamentation, with a clear emphasis on material quality and craftsmanship. The piece is in excellent, restored condition, with all elements authentic and well-preserved. The chest tells the story of rational modernism so emblematic of postwar Germany. Its clean lines, subtle details, and balanced proportions reflect an era seeking simplicity without sacrificing comfort. The teak veneer recalls a respect for natural materials, while the steel base speaks of confidence in technology. Minimalist handles and sliding doors evoke the pursuit of function and order, quietly suggesting a readiness for daily routines. This piece
