A very rare buffet form with "radio-type doors" and "radio top." This top and door configuration was originally designed and used for custom-fitted "hi-fi" or "radio" cabinets. The original owners requested that Nakashima make them a buffet with radio doors and top. Cherry with grilled pandanus cloth doors, free front sap edge and left and right overhangs. The interior is fitted with shelves and drawers.
