Bamboo and Wicker Sideboard by American of Martinsville, circa 1950, Signed
This incredible credenza cabinet by American of Martinsville features beautiful wicker doors, skirt and sides with bamboo frame and door pulls and formica top in such wonderful, ready-to-use condition. The left cabinet door opens to an interior shelf, the center cabinet doors open to a pull-out drawer (which is signed with the American of Martinsville stamp) with open cabinet space below, and the right cabinet door opens to open storage space. The Formica top has a burled pattern in shades of browns and grey. The lower skirt is also caned with wicker and bamboo legs and adds additional style and elegance to this sophisticated and classy piece.
Such an on-trend design, this bamboo and wicker sideboard is ideal for interior designers looking for Gabriella Crespi style without the Crespi price-tag. Consider pairing with Paul Frankl and McGuire rattan items. This piece is so unique and special - the combination of bamboo handles, the gorgeous wicker caning, and matching burled wood door frames that pair so nicely with the formica top - then add in the decades of aging which gives it such a beautiful patina - yet there is no damage which is incredibly rare for a piece this old - its the perfect combination of elements that checks every interior designer box.
This bamboo and wicker sideboard by American of Martinsville would work great in an Art Deco, Hollywood Regency, Post-Modern or Mid-Century Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Contemporary, Scandanavian Modern, Danish Modern or Zen / Minimalist room. Also consider mixing it up in a Space Age Mod, Traditional, Transitional, or Classical room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office.
