Description

This is a floating wall-mount credenza, Model 121 W-1, initially designed by Florence Knoll for Knoll Inc. in 1956. This example dates to the early 1960s. The piece features a walnut case, and it has two lacquered-wood drop down doors, revealing adjustable shelves and open storage (no shelves are shown, though we may have some of the original shelves, feel free to inquire). The frame of the piece is steel, and it has nice quality leather pulls.

The credenza measures 15.25 inches deep, 72 inches wide, and 17.35 inches high. It was refinished at some point in its life; the condition is quite nice. The walnut has a lovely patina and shows very few scratches and scuffs. The leather pulls have caramelized nicely, and the doors show light use. Overall, this credenza is in very good vintage condition with some light wear apparent. Please see photos.

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.
