Description: This is a monumental custom 2-position credenza, produced in 1965 by Gordon Bunshaft for the interior of the Chase Manhattan Bank headquarters, one of Bunshaft and SOM's most notable projects. It features book-matched olive ash burl throughout the piece, and sports polished stainless steel pulls, legs, and trim. It has a lovely white marble slab on the top (top has been professionally re-polished). This piece is fully finished on all sides, allowing it to float in a room. Bunshaft was an important American architect; a leading figure in the modernist movement who was widely recognized for his work in skyscraper design. This cabinet measures 19 inches long, 36 inches wide, and 26.5 inches high including its marble top. There are some small superficial scrapes and nicks to the veneer, and some light scratches to the steel trim. There is evidence of two veneer repairs to the corners and edges of the drawers. Overall, this piece is in very good condition with some light wear apparent. Please see photos. The buyer may pick up the furniture, have it shipped by our shipping partners (buyer will pay for full shipping cost, though will not have to arrange it), or discuss potential delivery within reason following the end of the auction. The listed shipping cost is an estimate, though we can likely stay below that number for most areas of the country. If you win the item, we can discuss shipping options, prices, etc. and we will make sure that it is as inexpensive for you as possible. We work with a shipper locally who takes great care in their work and has been complemented often on their packing and shipping quality.
