ABOUT PRODUCTID 23324
This vintage vanity table with drawers, manufactured by UP Závody in Czechoslovakia in 1986, exemplifies late modernist Eastern European furniture design of the 1980s. The construction is defined by minimalist, geometric lines—a rectangular body, flat panel legs extending directly from the tabletop, and two symmetrical drawers with rounded, glossy amber resin handles. The tabletop and drawer fronts are finished with high-gloss shellac, giving the light brown, honey-toned veneer a reflective lacquered effect, while subtle wood grain adds gentle warmth and visual texture. The sides are crafted from plastic wood imitation, a material characteristic of the 1980s and an early nod to the era’s growing use of PVC as a resource-efficient alternative to solid wood. No decorative details or ornamental accents are present, reinforcing the pragmatic, understated ethos of late 20th-century Czechoslovakian design. The table is in very good vintage condition, displaying only minor signs of use appropriate to its age.This dressing table quietly echoes the voice of 1980s Czechoslovakia: practicality and restrained aesthetics blend with a subtle search for modern solutions. The honeyed gloss of the shellac reflects morning light, while the balanced form suggests a piece created for everyday rituals in a tranquil setting. The resin handles, though not original, blend seamlessly, as if telling a story of adaptation and the pragmatic compromises that defined the twilight of the 20th century—a period when function and economy were as important as appearance.The table would
