ABOUT PRODUCTID 15359
This Danish magazine rack from the 1960s embodies the clarity of Scandinavian modernism, realized through a compelling union of teak wood and black metal. Its primary structure is defined by two trapezoidal side panels crafted from softly satin-finished teak, the grain accentuated by a subtle semi-gloss surface.

A meticulously shaped vertical handle, also in teak, is mounted atop a black rod for practical portability. Joints and fixings are kept discreet, reinforcing the sense of precision workmanship. With proportions of 36 cm width, 17 cm depth, and 49 cm height, the rack recalls the measured balance of mid-century living room accessories. Recently restored, the rack is in very good condition with no visible traces of wear.

The teak side panels tell of a reverence for nature’s materials, while the metal frame communicates the forward-looking mindset of the 1960s: optimism, transparency, and day-to-day practicality. The handle signals mobility, fitting the dynamic, evolving lifestyles seen in Danish cities of the era. The restrained silhouette and careful execution make a quiet allusion to the signature values of the period—balance, durability, and harmony.

It pairs readily with interiors inspired by mid-century modern and Scandinavian aesthetics, yet would also serve as a distinctive
