Information
This large modular wall unit by Pastoe, designed by Cees Braakman, is a strong example of Dutch mid-century design from the 1960s. The cabinet is executed in warm teak veneer combined with white lacquered elements, creating the clean architectural contrast typical for Pastoe’s modular systems.
The composition offers a balanced layout with multiple open shelving sections, a central glass display compartment, a drop-down cabinet, two white drawers, and generous closed storage in the lower section. The structure feels precise and rational, yet warm due to the natural teak grain.
What makes this piece particularly attractive is its condition.
All components are original. The shelves, glass panels, hinges, handles, and interior elements remain intact. Even the original plastic screw caps are still present, each marked with “Pastoe”, which confirms authenticity and careful preservation over time. This level of completeness is increasingly rare for large modular systems of this scale.
The teak veneer shows a beautiful natural patina consistent with age, without structural issues. The white lacquered parts are clean and well preserved. The cabinet stands stable and solid, ready for immediate placement in a living space, office, or architectural interior.
This is a substantial statement piece that combines functionality with strong horizontal and vertical rhythm. Ideal for collectors of Dutch design or anyone looking for a serious mid-century wall system with presence.
