Kurt Østervig Danish Teak Credenza, Model K.P. 22 — 1961

The K.P. 22 credenza, designed by Kurt Østervig in 1961 and made by K.P. Furniture through the 1960s.

Østervig built his reputation on a simple principle: furniture should be beautiful, practical and durable at once, with none of the three sacrificed for the others. The K.P. 22 is the piece most often cited as proof.

Model-numbered Danish furniture from a named designer is a different proposition from anonymous production of the same era — it is documented, traceable, and holds its value accordingly.

A collector's sideboard that still does the work of one.
