Vintage mid century modern steel credenza by Art Metal, slate gray enamel steel body with a warm walnut top and polished chrome legs. Sliding doors on the front, with an adjustable shelf in the left cabinet and four steel drawers on the right, two shallow over two deep.
The walnut top has a rich, even grain and a warm finish that contrasts beautifully with the slate gray steel. The original Art Metal USA label is still inside the cabinet (see photos).
A short history: Art Metal Construction Company, founded in 1888 in Jamestown, New York, built its name on steel office furniture. In 1959 it bought the Knoll companies from Florence Knoll, who stayed on as president and then design director into the mid 1960s. For roughly a decade the two firms were joined as Art Metal-Knoll, and Art Metal produced steel casegoods in the Knoll orbit before the combined era ended in the late 1960s. Credenzas like this one come out of that short chapter.
Details: Maker: Art Metal (Art Metal Construction Company), Jamestown, New York. Form: Credenza / office cabinet, sliding doors, adjustable shelf, 4 drawers. Materials: Enameled steel body and drawers, walnut top, chrome legs. Color: Slate gray with walnut top. Dimensions: 60 in W x 19 in D x 27.5 in H. Label: Original Art Metal USA label inside the cabinet.
