Chest of drawers (by Meredew)

Alphons loebenstein, a distinguished german émigré of fifty-seven years, forever altered the course of our company’s story. Possessed of a visionary spirit and a deep reverence for thoughtful design, he gently persuaded fred hard to depart from meredew’s venerable, time-honoured traditions, and to embrace a bold, modern aesthetic — the creation of unit furniture that echoed the rhythm of a new age. Before you stands a true testament to loebenstein’s genius — one of his most celebrated masterpieces. This elegant collection is defined by its refined oblong handles and its gracefully minimalist lines. Two rows of four drawers, crafted in varying sizes, offer a thoughtful harmony of form and function — allowing for the careful allocation of objects both great and small. Yet it is perhaps the warm, lustrous teakwood that most captivates the eye, imbuing the piece with a natural radiance and quiet dignity. In this work, craftsmanship meets clarity; tradition is not abandoned, but reborn — honouring the enduring artistry of fine woodworking, even as it steps gently into a more harmonious, modern world.
