A rarely available ‘Codan’ chest of four drawers in teak designed by John Herbert c.1963 for Younger Furniture of Great Britain. Younger were renowned for their high quality workmanship and mainly retailed through Heals.

Beautiful simple design, constructed from solid teak (except the drawer interiors etc), this is very unusual as most mid century furniture (including danish) were constructed using wood veneers.

This very generously proportioned chest of drawers provides a huge amount of very elegant and stylish storage with the signature overhanging top, richly figured teak and contrasting solid afrormosia handles and tapered legs.

A Younger were an up market maker of good quality contemporary furniture in the 1960s and their pieces would have been noticeably more expensive than G Plan and most other makers at the time.

This lovely Codan range was shown in the 1964 brochure, but was no longer there in 1968 brochure – when to reduce costs and prices they rationalised their ranges considerably.

In fantastic vintage condition. Minimal signs of wear through general use and age. Please review the photos – happy to answer any questions.
