Vintage dressers and used dressers: teak, oak, USM Haller

1 3

A used dresser is the piece with the best ratio of use to character: storage you touch every day.

At 2nd home you will find vintage dressers and used dressers from second hand: Danish teak dressers of the 1960s, oak dressers with lock, modular pedestals and dressers by USM Haller, designs by Wogg and Knoll. Every piece is individually checked and described with all dimensions and photos of its true condition. Wider pieces await among the sideboards, the small companions among the bedside tables, and the bedroom has a selection of its own.

What should you look for in a used dresser?

At the drawers: they must run smoothly and close fully; with old wooden runners a little wax often does the trick. At handles and locks, which vintage pieces like to lose, and at the footprint, because a slightly uneven floor makes any dresser wobble. What we know about it is stated with every piece.

Teak, oak or steel?

Danish teak is the living room classic, warm and easy to care for. Oak is heavier, lighter in colour and carries locks and fittings with dignity. USM Haller in steel is the choice for the office and for anyone who wants to extend later, because the system still fits together today.

Why a dresser from second hand?

Because solid wood and steel last generations if you let them. Used, you pay far less than list price, get patina instead of veneer shine and a piece that has already proven it lasts. Storage does not get more sustainable. And because dressers are rarely wider than 120 centimetres, they almost always reach you as a parcel rather than by freight, safely packed and insured.
