ABOUT PRODUCTID 20678
This chest of drawers, designed by Carl J. Krause in Germany during the 1950s, exemplifies the balanced aesthetics of mid-century modern design. Measuring 68 × 38 × 65 cm, its form is elevated on four slender, tapered legs that create a sense of visual lightness and harmonious proportion. The deep, warm walnut veneer highlights the natural wood grain, adding richness and subtle variation to the surface. Four drawers, arranged in two rows, are fitted with distinctive semi-circular brass handles in a brushed satin finish, offering a soft golden contrast against the darker wood. Gently rounded edges and precision joinery, with no visible screws or fittings, reflect meticulous craftsmanship. The overall condition is very good, with only minor, era-typical traces of use such as light surface marks on the veneer – no significant damage or repairs. All elements retain their original character and patina.This piece echoes the spirit of 1950s German optimism, when designers like Carl J. Krause pursued forms that were both modern and approachable, blending functionality with a careful attention to detail. The softly rounded contours, interplay of light across the walnut veneer, and the subtle gleam of brass evoke a sense of tranquility and ordered beauty – a quiet response to the era’s longing for harmony. The chest seems to recall a time when simplicity and quality were inseparable, and every detail was considered with longevity in mind.It can be paired with a low wooden or glass coffee table and an upholstered armchair in muted tones to emphasize its understated mid-century character. The piece works well in both classic and eclectic interiors, especially when accompanied by a lamp with brass accents or minimalist artwork in simple frames. Combining it with a textured rug or minimalist ceramics can bring out the depth of the veneer and the gentle lines of its design.
