A beautifully crafted piece, it was designed by E Gomme for G – Plan between 1952 and 1965.   Stamped with a gold embossed stamp, this stamp was used by Gomme on the first range from 1952 and continued into the sixties.  G-Plan was branded furniture and every piece was marked with either a stamp or label – each type giving an indication of the year it was made.  Known for their superb designs and high-quality craftsmanship, they are much sought after pieces to this day.  It features;

• teak timber & teak veneer construction
• circa 1952 - 1965
