Muut tiedot
The model was designed by Josef Frank in the late 1930's.
The most common was that it was made of pyramid mahogany, but according to the Svenskt Tenn archives, there are also notes of rosewood or schintz. In the archive's furniture book, Estrid Ericson has made a pencil sketch of the cabinet and written "designed for the King", i.e Gustaf V, probably for his 80th birthday in 1938.
