AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This special piece of furniture was designed at the time as a compact telephone table for the hallway. It consists of a telephone table with an open storage compartment and an extendable, upholstered seat, which after use can be slid back almost completely under the furniture.
An especially original detail is the extendable “Memory Slide” for recording names and phone numbers. This is still present and in very neat, unused condition. The original Chippy Telephone Seats label is also present in the furniture.
The piece features gracefully shaped side panels, slim legs, and original metal details. The combination of the dark wood and light upholstery gives the furniture an elegant Mid-Century look.
Condition:
Very neat vintage condition, especially given its age. The wood and construction have been well preserved. The Memory Slide is particularly clean and unused. See the photos for a good impression of the condition; these are part of the description.
Period: circa 1960s
Manufacturer: Chippy Heath / Chippy Telephone Seats
Origin: England
Style: Mid-Century / vintage
Special features: original extendable seating and original Memory Slide.
Today it is, besides being a collectible vintage telephone cabinet, also excellent as a hall piece or side table.
