This sophisticated chest of drawers, titled the 'Flora' Model 1050, is a classic creation by the celebrated Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn in the 1930s. Renowned as one of Sweden's most influential designers, Frank masterfully combined functionality with artistic design in this timeless piece.

Crafted from premium mahogany, the chest is adorned with hand-printed paper from 'Nordens flora' by C.A. Lindman and complemented by elegant brass handles. The intricate botanical motifs honor the harmony between nature and design, creating a visually stunning and meaningful aesthetic.

Josef Frank’s design was shaped by his early exploration of nature-inspired patterns during his time with Haus & Garten in Vienna. Estrid Ericson, Svenskt Tenn’s visionary founder, also played a pivotal role in the chest's creation, inspired by botanical prints she encountered after visiting Carl von Linné’s Hammarby estate in 1930. This collaboration led to an iconic piece that embodies Svenskt Tenn’s devotion to natural beauty and masterful craftsmanship.

More than just a functional piece, this chest of drawers stands as a landmark in Swedish design history, showcasing Josef Frank’s legacy and Svenskt Tenn’s innovative spirit. Its enduring appeal and high-quality materials make it a remarkable addition to both classic and modern interiors.
