About this piece

**PRE-ORDER** Full price $4,100 to secure with 50% deposit ($2050) plus delivery, please see below for further details.

This Chiswell 'Koben' sideboard in teak, with the clean lines the Sydney maker is renowned for. This stylish designer piece has 3 doors and 3 drawers and is a great size without taking up too much space and works in a dining room, living room or entry way.

Koben was a range name Chiswell used on its pieces and they have become highly desirable and collectable. The Sydney maker began around 1920 supplying Grace Bros, and its 1960s teak is the most collected period of its work.

How pre-orders work

The photos show the same maker and model as the one we have in our inventory. A pre-order moves it to the front for restoration and your piece will be restored to the same standard as the one pictured. Expect small differences in grain and tone. No two vintage pieces are exactly the same but it's very similar.

The restoration

Professionally restored in our Cheltenham workshop, we restore all pieces in-house. Depending on the piece, the work includes stripping, sanding, repairs, toning and finishing with a durable hardwax oil or a professional and hard wearing pre-cat lacquer finish. Every piece leaves fully functional. It is vintage, so some small areas of character can remain. That is part of its history.

Deposit and timing

A 50% deposit secures the piece. From that moment it is yours.

Most pre-orders are finished within 2 to 4 weeks plus delivery time. Some restorations occasionally take longer. If yours is one of them, we tell you upfront and keep you posted throughout.

When the piece is finished, we send you photos and a video. You see the finished piece before you pay the balance. Melbourne customers are welcome to view it in person before delivery.

The balance, plus delivery cost, is due before dispatch.
