Good morning,
I found this highboard at the local flea market for a very expensive price of 200 francs... Somedays you get lucky, I guess. It is well built, mid century piece made of solid wood and ply. I cannot find a brand name on the piece, just this square S inlay. Are there any furniture experts here who can help identify the brand?

No clue, but it's a lovely piece!

Is it possible it's a one-off piece? It looks like a lot of work to go to for a maker's mark on a production piece and especially compared with the way other makers marked their furniture at the time.

I guess it's Henredon, but not sure

No clue. FWIW, that 'S' looks sort of "homemade" - like someone added it after the fact rather than as a maker's mark or logo. I say that because of the gaps in the inlay. (Maybe it shrank though.) The logo also seems too big, even if it's on the back side.
Good luck Dan.
