ABOUT PRODUCTID 6884
This modular shelving unit, designed by Frantisk Jirak for Tatra Nabytok in Czechoslovakia, encapsulates the craftsmanship of the 1960s. Finished in a warm, honey-brown tone, it is crafted from beech wood veneer with a subtle semi-gloss that highlights the natural grain. The structure features two vertical modules: on the left, a lower cabinet with a single door and a column of five drawers with square handles; on the right, a wide cabinet with two sliding doors, each fitted with round, lighter-toned handles. Above the cabinets, open shelves—some with transparent plexiglass or glass fronts—are combined with a slim, horizontal drawer on the left. The unit stands on slender, turned legs typical of mid-century modern design, complemented by integrated handles and precise joinery that attest to its quality. The condition is very good: there are minor scratches, subtle discolorations, and gentle wear on the edges, all consistent with authentic 1960s vintage, with no major damage or repairs. This piece speaks in the language of Central European functional modernism: geometric clarity meets refined detailing, while the warmth of wood balances the discipline of its form. The silhouette echoes the optimism of the 1960s, when designers like Frantisk Jirak fused order with an everyday, approachable aesthetic. Integrated handles and considered proportions reflect the pursuit of harmony
