    It looks fairly generic to me, but maybe @verybrad knows this one. Nice piece though. If I needed something similar I'd jump on it for the right price.

    That dovetailing on the top isnt something you see on a generic piece. I think this is a tad "better". But Im often wrong,so there is that... :)

    I agree Johnny....The dovetail sides,is what sold me on this Also,other fine detailing on drawers & legs...All of the wood is solid...Everywhere!!..Nothing pressed!!...Sad thing is...No Labels...I would love to associate this with a designer???

    I don't really know but I believe Aasbjerg used finger joints.

    Have seen this before but have never seen it attributed. Think it is a bit later than MCM. 70s, on into early 80s.

    I believe say it slowly,is right on the designer....Google Aasbjerg credenza....Tambour doors & finger joints are the same,on his examples

    From what I am seeing, the Aasbjerg furniture has true dovetails at the corners. These are just finger joints.

    I would tend to agree with brad. The straight square legs with no tapering at all are not typical of MCM.

    Not an expert though so possibly wrong.

    Very nice looking piece that definitely has some mcm inspiration if its not mcm.

    Somewhere or other online I found someone saying that later Aasbjerg pieces had finger joints. Don't know if I can find it from my phone though.

    Interesting. Could be they were done both ways.
