Drexel Declaration Mid Century Credenza SOLD
This mid century credenza was designed by Kip Stewart and Stewart McDougal for the Drexel Declaration line of furniture. It is a good vintage quality credenza constructed from solid walnut with lots of storage space. Features four dovetailed drawers with ceramic pulls and cabinet doors on each side with adjustable / removable shelves. The cabinets are lighted, both original lights still work. There is some light wear on the top and sides that is consistent with its age, a very small blemish on one of the doors, and one small (less than half inch) piece on the rear/side where the wood broke off. The dark area on the top is NOT a stain, rather is where the original finish is glossier ( most likely due to being under a television and never seeing daylight.) Despite some of the small ( and easily repaired) blemishes, it is in good condition, and is very beautiful. Similar pieces retail for $1000-1200. This very large piece of furniture is taking up my entire living room right now, so I am offering it at an extremely low price. Come get it today!
