Vintage Paul Evans Style Wall Mount Floating City Scape Credenza
Paul Evans Iconic Cityscape Collection designed in the 70s
Paul Evans was born in Pennsylvania in 1931. He studied sculpture, metal work and silver and gold smithing. In the 1950s Evans began his career making copper chests and sculpted steel-front cabinets. In 1964 Evans became the designer for furniture manufacturer Directional Furniture. With them he introduced several series of furniture lines; such as the Argente series of one off studio pieces, Sculpted Bronze series and the popular Cityscape series. His relationship with them set a very high standard for creative manufacturing, insisting that every piece is made and finished by hand under his strict supervision. His pieces were almost always signed and all of the custom items have a signature and a date. Paul Evans' combination of handcraft and technology anticipated the limited edition art furniture of today. His designs are easily identifiable and highly collectable.
This piece has a custom base that it sits in in these photos made by the last piece. It lifts right off with no damage to the original condition. Can be used as is or it has a French cleat in the back to hang on the way.
DIMENSIONS - 72ʺW × 20ʺD × 36ʺH
CONDITION NOTES - The credenza is vintage so a base level of wear is to be expected. The piece does not have a signature of Paul Evans but was purchased with dining table that we have listed that is signed. The last two photos some some imperfections the piece has some light normal wear but overall is very good.
