DOK is a sideboard by Reinier de Jong that is made of corroded steel. By allowing nature to create the pattern on the surface, each sideboard is different. To stop the corrosion, each piece is finished with a transparent lacquer. DOK is made of separate pieces that can be individually ordered to create a custom piece. The front and back are made of plywood so that it can be a free standing.
