in New Zealand and overseas. Finished in a latest European trending Concise Walnut woodgrain, The Boston
Collection is right up with the minute. Paired with a minimalistic streamlined style and an emphasis on strong
horizontal lines, this collection is guaranteed to impress. Fully overlaid drawers give an illusion of length,
attributing to the slim line effect. Thin silver extruded handles enhance this effect, adding to the overall
horizontal theme without complicating surface areas. Tall slim chrome feet contribute the slim-line effect,
and create a feeling of space, by lifting the unit up off the ground.

pine forests. This means you can have complete confidence that with The Boston Collection, you are
making an environmentally responsible choice.
