Description
A rosewood display cabinet model 6, produced by the family-run Omann Jun Møbelfabrik in Denmark during the 1960s. Glazed doors reveal an interior lined with dark veneer showing deep, distinctive grain patterns, while built-in lighting allows pieces to be displayed after dark. The cabinet bears the maker's signature confirming authenticity and model number.
The design balances enclosed glazed sections with an open display area at the centre. All shelves adjust to different heights, offering flexibility for objects ranging from low ceramics to tall vases or art books. Slender legs in black finish lift the body visually off the floor, lending the piece that characteristic Scandinavian lightness. Overall proportions strike a balance between storage capacity and refined elegance.
Omann Jun Møbelfabrik belongs to the circle of manufacturers that established the international reputation of Danish furniture during the 1950s and 1960s. Founded in 1933 by Andreas Omann, the factory shifted focus mid-century toward fine timber pieces — teak, oak and rosewood — exported throughout Europe and America. The company's designs combined craft precision with functional elegance, meeting the demands of modern interiors.
The cabinet suits porcelain, collectible glass or books you want on display. A depth of just over thirty centimetres allows placement in a living room, dining area or study without claiming too much floor space. The integrated lighting transforms the piece into an illuminated showcase, highlighting contents even in the evening.
The cabinet is in good condition, with minor scratches and small chips consistent with age. Small losses have been filled. The more noticeable traces of use are also documented in the photographs, so that the actual state of preservation is conveyed as faithfully as possible.
