AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Unique opportunity for interior designers or lovers of military items.

Rare batch of 8 original, vintage metal frames from the iconic British Military Army Stacking Desks, presumably dating from the 1970s or 1980s of the last century.
These frames were used by the British Army because of their ingenious, asymmetrical design.
Thanks to the slanted tube construction, the bases are perfectly and very compactly nestable or stackable.
This makes them ideal for transport and flexible storage.
The frames are made of robust, thick-walled tube steel.
They are in an authentic, unrestored condition with a beautiful industrial patina (surface rust, discolorations and signs of wear that are inseparable from military history).
On the inside of the upper edge are the original mounting profiles with holes, making it very easy to mount a wooden, plastic, or concrete (table) top yourself.

Perfect to transform into a unique set of industrial dining tables, flexible-desk units, or terrace furniture for a cafe/restaurant.

Quantity: 8 pieces (sold as a single lot)
