Vintage buffet U-453 by Jiri Jiroutek for Interier Praha 1960

The U-453 sideboard with black, pink and white formica drawers was designed by the Czech furniture designer Jiri Jiroutek, and was part of the popular U collection manufactured by Interier Praha in Czechoslovakia in the 1960s. This piece perfectly embodies the "Brussels Style", named after the 1958 Expo in Brussels, where Czechoslovakia won 13 awards, including one in the furniture category. The buffet is in very good original condition. The wooden surface, the drawers in formica and the patina of the wooden upper part, acquired over the years, show a slight wear.
