Model 8844 Mid Century bookcase or cabinet from the Brandon range designed by VB Wilkins launched in 1953.
It has two adjustable and removable wooden shelves and two sliding glass doors. Great slope fronted G-Plan cabinet by "E-Gomme" manufactured in High Wycombe. Attractive and functional, this piece will not date.
We have received this one in a heavy teak-stained condition and stripped it back to the bare wood and veneer which revealed the original oak. Stained again and sealed.

Note/Disclaimer:
Although all effort is made to refurbish our furniture to best represent its original state, it must be noted that most of the items we source date between the 1950s to the late 1970s. For this reason and although restored, signs of their vintage condition & age might still be visible. We will normally point out any visible/notable concerns. Take note of all photos or view the item in-store prior to purchasing.
As with most Mid-Century pieces, it is a good combination of solid wood and a high-quality wood veneer. The history of veneer on furniture is a long and honourable tradition, and it depends on the veneer's artistry, condition, and thickness The quality of the old veneer was long-lasting; for this reason, it can be retouched or sanded and refinished.
