This Postmodern cabinet, crafted by De Coene, features a striking design with aluminium doors and handles. The cabinet is divided into four asymmetrical doors, the largest of which folds downward to reveal a vivid orange interior. The frame and body are constructed from black-colored ash, creating a bold contrast with the aluminium doors. This distinctive piece exemplifies the Minimalist movement of the early 1970s.

De Coene was founded in 1887 in Kortrijk (Belgium) by Jozef de Coene, who was at that time 13 years old. In 1895, his younger brother Adolphe joined the company. In their early years, De Coene was inspired by Henry van de Velde, Art Deco and the Arts & Crafts movement. The company made many custom made furnishings which leads to an expansive growth. After world war one, the brother visited the United States where they became acquainted with laminated wood production, and purchased a wood-stripping machine. They were the first company that made triplex in Belgium which led to the ability to mass produce. In 1954 they received the right to produce Knoll furniture. But although the company produced on a large-scale, there were still world famous for their meticulously detailed, high-quality and Art Deco inspired furniture.
