Equally at home beside your favorite reading chair or in a well-appointed office, this versatile piece serves elegantly as a magazine, book, or newspaper rack, gliding smoothly on its original casters.

As mid-century design surges in demand, owning authentic pieces like this offers both beauty and enduring value. Owning this rack means holding a piece of the mid-century modern story – a period when Nordic craftsmanship, natural materials, and intelligent simplicity redefined global design. This vintage Bruksbo rack remains in very good original condition with warm golden-brown teak veneer showing a natural satin glow. All six dividers are solid and true; the original castors roll freely; and the structure is sturdy and well-balanced. The original factory label is affixed beneath the base: BAGN MØBELINDUSTRI – BAGN, VALDRES / BRUKSBO MODELL – MADE IN NORWAY. One of the joys of this design is its adaptability. Created for magazines in the 1960s, it remains perfectly relevant today – ideal for organizing art books, design journals, or newspapers. The rack’s compact footprint and graceful silhouette complement both mid-century and contemporary interiors, adding order and visual warmth without crowding a room. Another remarkable aspect is its craftsmanship. Each panel is carefully veneered in teak over a stable engineered core, achieving durability and refined lightness. The fine grain and honeyed hue testify to Scandinavian artisans’ mastery of balance between material economy and aesthetic excellence. Its enduring functionality mirrors the timeless design philosophy that continues to drive collectors toward genuine MCM works – furniture that serves everyday life while embodying art.
