JANTAR chest of drawers, 3 doors, 180 cm, plinth base

JANTAR sideboard on a plinth, 180 cm: a solid block against the wall

The same three door carcass, this time seated on a timber plinth. The difference reads instantly: the piece does not hang on legs, it stands as one mass, and the floor line runs unbroken. The height here is 71 cm, six centimetres below the legged version, and that is precisely the height at which a chest slips under a window sill.

What it is made of

• timber plinth round the perimeter, the carcass rests on the floor
• three doors with solid oak fronts
• decorative band between the sections: oak, lacobel, marble-look HPL or a glowing panel
• black grip line on the fronts, no hardware on show
• one piece top panel
• rustic oak finish under lacquer

Who it suits

A room with a window that needs something beneath it: 71 cm usually clears the sill in an Israeli flat. A living room with a wall to wall rug, where legs sink into the pile and levelling becomes a chore. And anyone who has already taken other JANTAR pieces on plinths, so that the line along the floor runs through the room without steps.

Size and what fits

The chest takes 180 cm along the wall, projects 52 cm and rises to 71 cm. Behind the three doors is closed storage the full depth, and the depth here tells: an ordinary dinner plate lies with room to spare and a stack of bed linen stands whole.

How it sits in the room

A continuous base likes a level floor: on stepped tiling the chest has to be packed, and packing under a plinth cannot be hidden the way it can under a leg. Against a wall, on the other hand, it sits flush where the skirting is low. A top at 71 cm works as a working surface in a dining room: not for cutting on, but comfortable for serving.

Materials and finish

Solid oak and board in natural oak veneer, one rustic oak tone, lacquered. The plinth is the same timber as the carcass. The Polish factory MEBIN. One year warranty on the piece.
