Beech and glass bookcase by Vyčítal and Sedláček for Dřevotvar, 1960s





















Bookcase/wall shelf system by Karel Vyčítal and Miloš Sedláček for Dřevotvar Jablonné nad Orlicí (formerly Czechoslovakia), 1960s. Sedláček and Vyčítal were leading postwar Czechoslovak architects and worked for the Czechoslovak firm Dřevotvar Jablonné nad Orlicí. Their work was obviously inspired by postwar Scandinavian design, from which they not only drew inspiration but also tried to modify in various ways. This furniture is made of high-quality beech wood and polished with shellac; it also has glass doors. It is in original condition but very well preserved; it shows signs of time and use consistent with its age.
