This Scandinavian modern bedside shelf from the 1960s draws on the design language of the iconic String system, renowned for its functional clarity in Swedish interiors of the period. The structure comprises a medium brown teak wood top with visible grain and a graphic basket crafted from black powder-coated steel wire. The teak shelf is rectangular with softly rounded front edges, while beneath it, a stepped, triangular steel basket provides storage for magazines, books, or small objects. Both materials merge through precise craft: the smooth, matte teak surface is complemented by the clean geometry of the steel, with seamless welds and a unified silhouette. The shelf is wall-mounted via two discreet integrated brackets, and its compact size (45 × 33 × 20 cm) is particularly suited to smaller spaces. Condition is very good; only gentle, age-consistent marks are visible, with no structural defects. This shelf embodies the spirit of mature Scandinavian modernism: wood and metal converse in an austere geometry, channeling the era’s pursuit of simplicity. Here, superfluous details are absent – the slender steel outline and uninterrupted teak convey an understated dialogue, echoing an age where utility and visual clarity went hand in hand. Its form quietly signals everyday utility, yet maintains a subtle, almost invisible presence within the room. The shelf can be mounted bedside for books, a lamp, and smaller essentials, but it would also complement a living room – for example, above a low sofa or as a perch for plants and ceramics. Mid-century modern or minimalist interiors will bring out its raw elegance, while pairing it with soft textiles or
