Pamono Teak Sideboard by Tom Robertson for McIntosh Best

Good used condition, stable and sound in construction with minor age related marks. A vintage, very rare model teak sideboard designed by Tom Robertson and manufactured by A.H. McIntosh of Kirkcaldy in the 1960s. This much sought after, classic piece of Scottish mid century furniture features extensive storage with three drawers set in its centre, the top drawer lined in felt and with cutlery dividers in place. To the left is a shelved cupboard with drop-down door front and to the right is a shelved drinks cabinet. Hidden beneath the top of the sideboard is a super little formica topped slide-out tray. Handy for for mixing cocktails! The colour of the wood is fantastic. This piece has a lovely ‘honey’ tone which makes it a gorgeous and very stylish retro sideboard. The standout features of this sideboard though are the stunning ‘sunburst’ designs found on the cabinet doors. This clever use of radial veneer decoration seems to have been a McIntosh speciality and is a stunning feature which will have taken great skill to achieve . It certainly would have made it more expensive than standard pieces at the time .
