The so-called glove cabinet, which Finn Juhl designed for his wife Hanne Wilhelm Hansen, was presented by Ludwig Pontoppidan at the cabinetmakers' guild exhibition in 1961.
This exhibition became the focus of fierce criticism, especially from designers such as Børge Mogensen and Arne Karlsen, for whom, as followers of functionalism, unnecessary decoration was frowned upon.
But time has proven his critics wrong. Finn Juhl's designs do indeed have longevity. With his artistic approach to design, Finn Juhl was one of the few who mastered both functionality and fine detail.
And although women no longer wear gloves as they did in the 1960s, Finn Juhl's reinvention of the traditional dresser still holds up more than 50 years later.
The 'Glove Cabinet' is crafted from exclusive cherry wood and features a brass exterior combined with a bold colored interior.
Whether as a splash of colour in the home office or as a storage space for jewellery, baggies, ties or socks and underwear: the 'Glove Cabinet' is a jewel of a piece of furniture.
