This rare 1980 German Baker 9‑Piece Wall Unit & Secretary is an exceptional modular library system combining storage, display, and a full drop‑front writing desk. Crafted with Baker’s signature architectural detailing, the unit features paneled doors, brass hardware, adjustable shelving, and a fold‑down secretary workspace with interior compartments. Each section is fully finished and designed to interlock, allowing multiple configurations for books, media, collectibles, or office use.

The nine components include upper shelving units, lower storage cabinets, a central secretary with a leather‑inlay writing surface, and flanking modules with drawers and cupboards. The craftsmanship reflects the same quality seen in Baker’s 1980s Biedermeier and Chinoiserie casegoods—solid wood construction, refined joinery, and classic European styling.
