{"product_id":"meredew-teak-blanket-box-storage-chest-75266","title":"Meredew Teak Blanket Box \/ Storage Chest — British, 1960s","description":"\u003cp\u003eGood design holds its own wherever it lands — end of a bed, filled with blankets; a hallway, filled with shoes and wellies. This piece is ready for your interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA beautifully prescient piece of British mid-century design. Clean, architectural, and quietly confident — this Meredew blanket box lets the material do all the modernist talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe form is restrained to the point of severity. No handles, no applied hardware, no decoration. Just teak veneer, clean joinery, and a recessed lid that sits fractionally below the frame. The shadow gap detail feels remarkably contemporary — a feature now common in high-end joinery and kitchen design, resolved here in teak six decades ago. You can imagine the designer’s pencil lines. It arrived fully formed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeredew were a Letchworth-based manufacturer with a long tradition of quality furniture making. By the 1960s they were producing pieces that absorbed the Scandinavian lessons of material honesty and formal clarity — this box is a good example of that sensibility applied to a British context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior is generous and well-finished. Structurally excellent throughout. Cleaned and fed with Danish oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Very good vintage\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Teak veneer\u003cbr\u003e\nMaker: Meredew Furniture, Britain\u003cbr\u003e\nPeriod: 1960s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: W 92cm · D 46cm · H 45.5cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scandinavian Modern","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57986070348163,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0073\/4399\/6992\/files\/il_fullxfull.7988672072_pf0w.jpg?v=1778051336","url":"https:\/\/scandinavianmodern.store\/products\/meredew-teak-blanket-box-storage-chest-75266","provider":"Scandinavian Modern","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
