Vintage modular shelving unit 1950s mid-century modern

A beautiful example of mid-century simplicity, this modular shelving unit provides a sleek and functional solution to storage. Bringing to mind charlotte perriand’s nuage shelving unit from 1940, the eight laminate wood shelves are suspended by six tubular black powder-coated metal supports. This unit is fully dismantlable, and separates into 43 distinct parts. We have colour coded each section for ease of assembly. This is the basic design, but it’s up to you if you want to experiment with different combinations of shelves and rods. One shelf protrudes apart from the front of the unit by 7cm, so please factor this in when measuring your space. Its minimal functionality makes this piece ideal for any room needing practical storage. Please note, the top-middle inside rod is missing (as shown), but this does not affect the stability. This piece will be shipped flat-packed both internationally and domestically. Creator: unknown. Place of origin: france. Date of manufacture: c. 1950's. Period: 1950-1959.
