Svend Aage Larsen Brazilian Rosewood Sideboard by Faarup Møbelfabrik, Denmark, 1960s
by MCM-SF
An exceptional example of mid-century Danish design, this sideboard—crafted by Faarup Møbelfabrik in the 1960s—is the work of renowned designer Svend Aage Larsen. Meticulously constructed from richly patinated Brazilian rosewood, the credenza showcases the extraordinary grain and depth of color that make this wood so highly prized.
The sideboard spans an impressive 90.5 inches in width and features a pair of beautifully engineered tambour doors. These doors glide smoothly open and recess seamlessly into the cabinet body, revealing two spacious storage compartments—each fitted with an adjustable shelf for customizable organization.
Four felt-lined drawers, ideal for storing cutlery or linens, are centralized, and an additional lower compartment provides even more storage options. The clean lines, expert craftsmanship, and functional design exemplify the elegance of Scandinavian modernism.
In excellent vintage condition, the piece shows only minor, age-appropriate wear consistent with its era. This stunning credenza is a statement piece and a functional storage solution, perfect for any discerning collector or design enthusiast.
