Walnut Shelving Unit

This is a custom shelving unit, designed by Ladislav Sutnar for Knoll and Drake in 1955. The listed price includes one unit, and we have two units available for purchase. These modular shelving units were produced in Austin, Texas in the 1950s. They were manufactured by Austin Industries in a dedicated factory collaboration known as Knoll + Drake Furniture. The partnership was established in 1953 between Hans Knoll and William S. Drake.

Each unit measures 10 inches deep, 47.5 inches wide and 90.5 inches high. There are some stains on the wood, and there are some chips on the bottom of one of the bookshelves. The white enameled steel structure shows some yellow discoloration and there is some paint chipping off. Overall, the units are in good condition. Please see photos.
