Vintage Double Wardrobe with Shelves by Austinsuite

A beautifully made vintage wardrobe by respected British manufacturer Austensuite, featuring the UK Board of Trade utility stamp on the back, dating its production to between 1942–1952. This mark was part of the wartime Utility Furniture Scheme, a symbol of quality craftsmanship during a period of material rationing in Britain.
The wardrobe combines a traditional exterior design with a richly grained mid-century teak interior. Inside, it offers a highly practical layout including:
 
Top interior shelf.
Full hanging space.
Original lock and key.
 
This is not just a functional storage piece but also a slice of British design history, reflecting both elegance and resilience.
 
Condition: Very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. Structurally solid and clean throughout.
A characterful piece, perfect for those who appreciate design with a story.
 
I have another smaller matching wardrobe available in another listing.
