JANTAR chest of drawers, 3 doors, 180 cm, on metal legs

JANTAR sideboard 180 cm: three doors and a long line of oak

The longest chest in the collection and the quietest across the front: three solid doors with a vertical decorative band between them and not a single handle. Everything opens by a recessed black line that runs across the fronts and doubles as the pattern. A metre eighty of oak on black metal legs looks substantial without looking heavy, because the carcass is lifted off the floor.

What it is made of

• three solid doors with closed storage behind them
• vertical band in four finishes: an oak board, black lacobel, HPL with a marble pattern, amber with lighting
• recessed black line in place of handles
• rounded carcass corners
• black metal legs
• one piece top with no joins

Who it suits

A lounge with one long free wall, where the chest covers it end to end and settles what to do with the space. A dining room: 180 cm takes crockery, table linen and whatever comes out on holidays. An entrance hall in a roomy flat, if shoes and bags belong behind solid fronts rather than on show. Ordering Polish furniture online is the norm in Israel, and this chest is no exception.

Size and what fits

The chest runs 180 cm long, 52 cm deep and 77 cm high. A depth of 52 cm is more than an ordinary chest, so plates go in two rows and archive sized boxes fit inside. The height of 77 cm is comfortable for unpacking bags without stooping.

How it sits in the room

A top 180 cm long carries a lamp, a stack of magazines and a tray all at once. If a mirror or a picture hangs above, reckon on the 77 cm plus a gap: under forty centimetres the arrangement looks squeezed. The doors are hinged and each takes about a third of the front when opened.

Materials and finish

Oak appears twice over: solid in the frame and as natural veneer on board. The tone is the same across the collection, rustic oak with open grain, lacquered. Manufacturer MEBIN, Poland, twelve month warranty.
