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.

Teak Westbourne Sideboard by White & Newton, Designed by Phillip Hussey, 1960s
A distinguished creation of British mid-century design, the Westbourne sideboard was conceived in the 1960s by Phillip Hussey for White & Newton of Portsmouth. Crafted in richly toned teak, it reflects the era’s pursuit of clean modern lines married with quiet sophistication.
Its thoughtful design is marked by a beautifully engineered folding door, which opens to reveal generous storage, while a fitted cutlery drawer provides both order and refinement — a subtle detail that speaks to the maker’s dedication to function as well as form. The natural grain of the teak lends warmth throughout, complemented by a series of well-proportioned compartments that ensure ample space for everyday use.
Elegant in form yet practical in purpose, this sideboard remains a versatile piece, equally suited to modern living or as a centrepiece in a curated mid-century collection.

2,800.00€ Read moreWhite and Newton Rogate Sideboard
An exceptional creation from the late 1960s, this Rogate sideboard—designed by the gifted Philip Hussey for White & Newton—is a true collector’s piece.
Hussey’s talent for material harmony is evident in the contrast between the richly figured rosewood and the warm teak used for the top and sides—a composition that reflects both balance and boldness.
The piece has been fully restored with great care, reviving the natural beauty of the timbers while preserving the integrity of its original design. Its form remains crisp and elegant: raised on slender tapering legs, with clean lines and discreet, integrated handles that speak to the refinement of mid-century British modernism.
Three drawers and a pair of outward-opening doors reveal practical storage, including internal shelving—making this sideboard as functional as it is graceful.
A rare and timeless work, now brought back to its full splendour, this sideboard stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of craftsmanship and design.
