Model 232 "China" cabinet - Børge Mogensen

Model 232 cabinet designed in 1951 by Børge Mogensen and manufactured by C.M. Madsen, Denmark. Later in 1964, Model A232 was added to the collection of FDB Møbler. The cabinet, also known as the 'China Cabinet', combines a teak veneer casing with an oak base. It opens to a birch-lined interior fitted with adjustable shelves and pull-out wooden tray drawers. The doors are finished with circular brass key handles that double as functional locks. This nod to traditional Asian furniture reflects Mogensen's signature approach—taking historical designs and reinterpreting them through a modernist lens. The back panel retains the original stamp with FDB Møbler stamp and its model number 232. The cabinet remains in very good condition with some marks and traces of use which are consistent for its age.
