with its impressive 184 cm long, low profile, the sideboard is raised on elegant tapered legs and displays rich teak tones throughout. The gently bowed frontage, sculptural handles and clean proportions give the piece a strong Scandinavian-influenced aesthetic while retaining its distinctly British character.

The storage is arranged across three sections. To the left is a spacious shelved cupboard, while the central section incorporates a particularly desirable drop-front cocktail cabinet. The door lowers to create a convenient serving surface, making the compartment ideal for bottles, glassware and bar accessories.

To the right are three generously sized drawers, each featuring a beautifully sculpted integrated wooden handle. The cupboard and cocktail cabinet doors are finished with Beautility's particularly distinctive circular drop-ring wooden handles, positioned beneath shaped horizontal rails.

The original Beautility maker's mark remains present inside the cabinet, confirming the manufacturer.

This example has undergone an extensive restoration, carefully reviving the timber and finish while retaining the original design, hardware and character of the piece. The restoration allows the natural grain, colour and warmth of the teak to take centre stage while preparing the sideboard for many further years of use.

An impressive and highly practical example of British Mid-Century Modern furniture, equally suited to a dining room, living room or larger open-plan interior. This piece has an attribution mark,
