String shelving system by Nils Strinning, Sweden, 1949, teak and black wire, secretary element

Timeless String shelving system by Nils Strinning. The Swedish architect designed this classic in 1949, creating an icon of minimalist design. The characteristic black wire ladders form an elegant contrast to the warm teak elements. A special handcrafted detail is the integrated cabinet element with a practical drop-down door, which is ideal as a compact secretary or home bar. Carefully restored and in very good vintage condition.
