Grosfeld House Credenza

Creator: Grosfeld House (Attributed)
Offered by: Elle W Collection

Description
This is a stunning example of a Grosfeld House mirrored and silvered sideboard, dating from the mid-20th century, likely the 1940s or 1950s. A testament to the elegance and sophistication of American design during this era, the sideboard embodies the glamour of the Hollywood Regency style. The piece is meticulously crafted, showcasing the high standards for which Grosfeld House was known.
The sideboard's defining feature is its luxurious combination of mirrored glass and silvered wood. The two cabinet doors are expertly paneled with antiqued mirrored glass, creating a captivating play of light and reflection. This mirrored surface not only adds a touch of drama but also serves to visually expand the surrounding space. The antiquing process gives the mirrors a subtle patina, adding depth and character. Complementing the mirrored panels is the meticulously applied silvered wood trim, which outlines the doors and frames the piece, enhancing its overall elegance. The doors are fitted with sleek Lucite cylinder pulls, a hallmark of mid-century modern design, adding a touch of transparency and sophistication.
The sideboard is elevated on a plinth base, which is further embellished with a classic Greek key motif. This decorative detail adds a subtle architectural element and elevates the overall design, lending a sense of refined grandeur. The interior of the sideboard provides a delightful surprise. Upon opening the doors, one is greeted by a vibrant light lime green painted interior. This unexpected pop of color provides a playful and stylish contrast to the more restrained exterior and adds a touch of personality. The interior is thoughtfully configured with drawers and shelving, offering ample storage space for a variety of items, whether for dining room essentials or living room accoutrements. While the piece is currently unmarked, its distinctive style, the quality of its construction, and the use of high-end materials are all strong indicators of Grosfeld House craftsmanship, making it a highly desirable and collectible piece of mid-century modern furniture. This sideboard would undoubtedly be a focal point in any room, adding both style and functionality.
