A rare opportunity to secure a matching pair of Austinsuite sliding wardrobes—the gold standard of 1960s British bedroom design. Designed by Frank Austin, these pieces were revolutionary for their "space-saving" utility. Unlike traditional hinged wardrobes that require meter-deep clearance to open, these sliding doors glide effortlessly within their own footprint, making them essential for the modern urban apartment.

The set includes one mirrored unit and one full-teak unit, creating a balanced wall of storage. The identifying feature is the slender solid teak vertical handle, a minimalist detail that elongates the silhouette. The grain is rich, honey-toned, and vertically matched—a testament to Austinsuite’s veneer quality. This is "fitted furniture" flexibility with the investment value of freestanding vintage.

The Interior Stylist's Note: Place these side-by-side to create a "built-in" wall of joinery without the renovation cost. The sliding mechanism makes them perfect for narrow bedrooms or guest rooms where space is tight.

Condition & Restoration: Vintage Condition. The sliding tracks are original and working smoothly. The teak veneer is generally robust, though please expect minor nibbles to the plinth or back edges consistent with large case goods of this era.
