The cabinet combines open shelving, record dividers and enclosed storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper section is arranged with open shelves and vertical dividers intended for records or magazines, while the central cabinet provides concealed storage behind a hinged door. A lower section combines further shelving with a sliding door cupboard, creating a balanced mix of display and practical storage. The proportions are carefully considered, allowing books, ceramics and audio equipment to sit comfortably within the structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDomino Møbler\u003c\/strong\u003e was a Danish furniture manufacturer active during the mid twentieth century, particularly from the 1960s through the 1970s, producing furniture in the Scandinavian Modern style. The company manufactured a range of domestic furniture including desks, wall units, seating and storage pieces, typically constructed in teak or other hardwood veneers.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike many Danish manufacturers of the period, Domino Møbler worked within the broader movement of Danish Modern design rather than promoting a single named designer. Their furniture is characterised by clean lines, practical proportions and the use of natural materials, reflecting the wider Scandinavian emphasis on simplicity and functional craftsmanship.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduction appears to have focused on well made domestic furniture intended for export markets as well as the Scandinavian home market. Surviving pieces include teak desks, shelving systems, lounge seating and cabinets, most dating from the 1960s and 1970s.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough less widely documented than the major Danish makers, Domino Møbler’s work sits firmly within the tradition of mid-century Scandinavian design, combining restrained forms with durable materials such as solid teak and quality veneers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit works equally well as a library, record storage system or bar cabinet, while the varied compartments provide a natural rhythm for displaying objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions\u003cbr\u003eLength - 122 cm\u003cbr\u003eDepth - 40 cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight - 180 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit is in very good overall condition. The pale wood elements have been carefully stripped and finished with Danish oil, bringing out the natural warmth and grain of the timber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are a few light, age related marks to some of the wooden shelves, consistent with normal use over time. These are subtle and do not detract from the overall appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the back panel, a small number of fixing nails are just visible where they slightly protrude through the board. This is minor and purely cosmetic. A small circular hole has been cut in the bottom back panel to allow for audio cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe doors run smoothly and the cabinet hinge has a particularly nice action, closing with a gentle slow release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, the piece presents very well and remains structurally sound, with only the expected signs of age for a piece of this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"a fold of chairs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57711975530880,"sku":null,"price":1350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/3093\/files\/Untitled-26.jpg?v=1774531619","url":"https:\/\/www.afoldofchairs.com\/products\/domino-mobler-cabinet-denmark-1960s","provider":"a fold of chairs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
