Dunfermline Sideboard by Tom Robertson in Teak
1,700.00€ Add to cartDunfermline Sideboard by Tom Robertson in Teak
A beautiful creation of British mid-century design, this teak sideboard was conceived in the 1970s by renowned designer Tom Robertson for the revered Scottish maker A.H. McIntosh. Embodying the quiet refinement and functional grace of the era, it is a piece of enduring elegance.
Handcrafted in rich teak, the sideboard has been fully restored with great care and respect for its original soul. The wood has been gently sanded and treated with hardwax oils, bringing forth its natural warmth and satin sheen.
The design is both thoughtful and noble. Two outward-opening cabinet doors reveal spacious compartments with internal shelves, offering ample storage for tableware or cherished possessions. To the left, a suite of drawers provides further utility, including a top felt-lined cutlery drawer — a detail that speaks to the care and purpose with which this piece was conceived.
At once stately and restrained, this sideboard is a testament to the artistry of Tom Robertson and the legacy of A.H. McIntosh — a timeless addition to any considered interior.

White and Newton sideboard (Petersfield collection)
1,800.00€ Add to cartWhite and Newton sideboard (Petersfield collection)
This sideboard is a handcrafted piece from the 1960s, designed by Philip Hussey and made by the renowned cabinet maker White and Newton in Portsmouth, England. Hussey created this piece for the Peterfields Collection, featuring light teakwood, curved lines on the top and a flat front with minimalist built-in handles. This sideboard’s elegant and timeless design showcases Hussey’s mastery of his craft and the exceptional quality of White and Newton’s workmanship.
Philip is one of the unsung heroes of British furniture design who deserves to be far better known! As a young man of 24, he was appointed to replace Arthur Edwards as head designer of White and Newton in 1964. They were then a successful medium-sized maker of contemporary furniture, which was a little conservative in style. In the late 1960s, he pushed some boundaries, particularly in some of his sideboard designs, which moved White and Newton into a much more modern, stylish, minimalist direction. Some of these designs were very popular and came up for sale quite frequently, while others were too ahead of their time and are unfortunately rarely seen today. When they do appear, they’re now recognised as design classics.
