Danish vintage modular teak wall unit by Poul Cadovius for Cado, 1950s
Vintage Danish teak wall unit by Poul Cadovius for Cado, 1950s. Mid-Century Modern 5 bay shelving system model Royal.
This is a original vintage shelving system designed in 1948 by Danish architect Poul Cadovius.
Cadovius had the revolutionary idea to design a floating, modular shelving system that would maximize floor space and signify the end of conformity in shelving.
The Royal System shelving unit went on to win the gold medal at the Finland Furniture Fair in 1950 and silver medal at the XI Triennale di Milano 1957 and remained a hallmark of Scandinavian modern design throughout the 1950s and ‘60s.
Versatile and flexible floating bookcase that allows for continuous rearranging to suit individual needs. Many beautiful details. Especially the woven teak veneer on the drop down doors.
The accompanying manual shows the versatility of the system. Utilised in living rooms, home office spaces, or over bed wall storage systems. See photos
