$2,450 · 1960s Danish Solid Teak Bookcase by Peter Hvidt for Soborg Møbelfabrik

An outstanding example of Danish modern craftsmanship, this solid teak bookcase by Peter Hvidt for Søborg Møbelfabrik (1960s) showcases both refinement and utility. Constructed entirely of solid teak — a rarity even in its era — it features Hvidt’s signature clean lines, exposed joinery, and thoughtful proportions. The asymmetric shelving arrangement offers a striking architectural presence while allowing for a dynamic mix of books, ceramics, and decorative objects. The details speak volumes: exposed finger joints at the corners, beautifully grained teak panels, and round, tapering legs that lift the case with a sense of lightness. Recently restored and glowing with a warm, even patina, it is as functional as it is sculptural. A true collector’s piece, it embodies the uncompromising quality and timeless elegance that have made Hvidt and Søborg Møbelfabrik enduring names in mid-century design.
