A beautifully proportioned vintage teak sideboard by British furniture maker Avalon, believed to date from the 1960s. With its clean mid-century lines, warm golden tones and elegant raised design, this is a wonderfully understated piece with plenty of character.
The sideboard features a long, streamlined silhouette, complemented by distinctive sculpted wooden handles and slender tapered legs with cross-stretcher detailing. The teak has an attractive grain throughout, with subtle variations in colour that bring warmth and depth to the simple, timeless design.
Offering generous and practical storage, the sideboard has three central drawers, the uppermost featuring a divided interior, ideal for cutlery and smaller essentials. To either side are spacious cupboards with internal shelving, providing plenty of room for tableware, glassware and other household items.
– Lovely Vintage Condition –
Presented in lovely vintage condition, with a warm, mellow finish that shows off the attractive grain of the teak. Just a few minor polished-in marks, scuffs and gentle signs of age remain, all part of its authentic vintage character. The drawers and cupboards are clean and well presented, while the original handles and legs retain their attractive finish. Please take a close look through all photographs, as these form an important part of the description and show the condition in greater detail.
With its generous proportions and elegant simplicity, this sideboard would make a fabulous addition to a dining room or living space, offering useful storage without compromising on style. A classic example of British mid-century furniture that sits just as comfortably in a contemporary interior as it does alongside other vintage pieces.

Our restoration process
Preparation
We carefully assess every piece, identifying any damage, repairs or replacement parts it may need. Drawers may need new runners, handles can be missing or damaged, and joints may require repair or reinforcement. We look beyond the surface to uncover hidden defects, ensuring each piece is restored to work as it was originally intended.
Restoration
With over 20 years of experience, we know that the right restoration techniques can make all the difference. It’s a delicate process that takes patience, skill and attention to detail — one we’ve taken the time to perfect. Each piece is carefully and sensitively restored, preserving its original character and charm while giving it a new lease of life.
Finishing
Finally, we add the finishing touches — whether that’s painting, oiling or sealing, fitting new handles, hinges or catches, or simply giving the piece a final clean and polish. We make sure every piece is ready for modern living, giving it a new lease of life and a renewed sense of purpose, ready to be loved for generations to come.
Before and after
Each piece is carefully and sympathetically restored to preserve the character, charm and beautiful details that make it unique. The result is a truly individual piece of furniture, thoughtfully restored for
