AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
We offer you an original Polish table from the PRL era, most likely from the Grudziądz Furniture Works of the Territorial Industry in Grudziądz.
The furniture is distinguished by the characteristic features of Polish design from the 1960s and the early 1970s: a simple, geometric form, slender, slightly splayed legs, and an elegant oak veneer.
A particularly interesting element of the construction is the drop-down front panel, which gives access to the interior space of the piece. It is not a classic drawer. The functional construction and compact dimensions point to the utilitarian character of this unconventional table.
The body is made of veneer-covered material with oak veneer, while the legs are made of solid oak. The top is made of veneer-covered mahogany.
On the bottom of the piece there remains a fragment of the original Polish production label with the legible inscription:
“Wyrób Grudziądz,” and the field “Nazwa wyrobu”.
The preserved label is an important element documenting the Polish origin of the furniture and provides a basis for attributing it to Grudziądz furniture production.
Grudziądzkie Zakłady Meblarskie operated during the PRL period and produced both furniture sets and individual pieces. The form of the presented specimen is characteristic of modernist furniture design from the second half of the 1960s and the early 1970s.
Dating and attribution
Poland, Grudziądz, probably around 1965–1975.
Attribution to Grudziądzkie Zakłady Meblarskie Przemysłu Terenowego is based primarily on the preserved marking “Wyrób Grudziądz,” the construction, and the furniture’s styling. The exact number/model is not known.
This is an interesting example of Polish utilitarian design from the PRL era, particularly attractive to collectors of Polish design, vintage furniture, Mid-Century Modern, and interior furnishings from the 60s/70s.
Dimensions:
Height: 78.4 cm
Width: 74 cm
Depth: 60 cm
