"Ambassadör" sideboard by Carl Malmsten for Åfors Möbelfabrik, 1950s

Teak sideboard with three drawers and three independent storage compartments. "Ambassadör" model designed by Carl Malmsten for Åfors Möbelfabrik, Sweden. Original manufacturer's mark present. Designed by Carl Malmsten and produced by Åfors Möbelfabrik during the 1950s, the "Ambassadör" model reflects a thoughtful approach to woodworking, where timber serves both a structural and decorative purpose. The front panels are distinguished by the alternating vertical and horizontal walnut grain, creating a composition rich in rhythm and visual depth. Carefully carved directly from the wood, the handles blend seamlessly into the design, while the inserts surrounding the keyholes introduce a luminous golden accent that discreetly enhances the overall composition. The sideboard features three upper drawers and three independent storage compartments. Original manufacturer's mark present. Good condition. It may show some signs of age and use. Please pay close attention to the photographs. AG176
