LARGE WALNUT SIDEBOARD BY JOS DE MEY FOR VAN DEN BERGHE-PAUVERS, 1961
LARGE WALNUT SIDEBOARD BY JOS DE MEY FOR VAN DEN BERGHE-PAUVERS, 1961
Extra large walnut sideboard designed by Jos De Mey and produced in Belgium by Van Den Berghe-Pauvers (1961). The size (300cm) and unique walnut woodgrain with brass U-shaped handles make this a highly decorative piece. It also stands on a slim black lacquered metal base which provides a nice modern touch. Jos De Mey was known to make custom ordered designs and this sideboard is clearly one of a kind. Especially this size in combination with the black metal frame I have not seen before. The sideboard is dated 12-1-1961 so the metal frame can be linked to De Mey’s earlier designs for Luxus during the 1950s. In great fully restored condition with just some minor traces of use. A great find! Good to know: this sideboard can also be mounted to the wall. The last pictures are made in daylight and give you a better idea of the wood color.
