Description

This is a Postmodern Armoire Cabinet, designed by Michael Graves in 1986 for his project in La Jolla, the Aventine Hotel. It was manufactured by Glenn of California from Cherry Wood. The piece is made with heavy MDF wood, having a cross-hatch motif on the front of the doors. There is ample space inside of the unit to place a television if so desired.

Michael Graves coordinated and controlled the entirety of the architectural build for his projects. He would design the building, the rugs, and the art. The design of this cabinet is intended to mimic the facade of the Aventine Hotel.

The armoire cabinet measures 27.75 inches deep, 49.25 inches wide, and 72.25 inches high. This piece does show wear from previous use. There are visible surface blemishes such as scratches and scuffs in areas. Overall, this piece is in good vintage condition. Please see photos.

What should I expect when ordering an item with lead time?

Estimated lead times are shown under "Delivery", above. Read our shipping policy to learn more.

Lead times are estimated based on previous production times from our manufacturing partners, but lead times can change depending on availability and circumstances outside of Rarify's control.

For example: if purchasing an imported or made-to-order product, international shipping and import times depend on many factors. This includes US customs operations, global trade circumstances, and production facilities in other countries.

We will try to fulfill your order as quickly as possible. Our international freight forwarding partners help to take burden off of you during the process of importing; we appreciate your patience while your order is fulfilled.

Purchasing made-to-order is one of the most responsible ways to purchase, as it helps prevent furniture waste on our planet.

Vintage items are typically in-stock in the USA and ready to ship once purchased.

Do you deliver to NYC?

Yes, in-stock items can often be delivered to NYC quickly by our skilled couriers. Pieces are delivered by hand to your residence. This typically takes 1-2 weeks for items stocked at our warehouse in PA.

What is Freight shipping?

Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.

Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.
