Ideal for collectors, the foil Herman Miller label dates to 1951 – 1956 years of production making them sought after pieces. These bedside tables / night stands, which can also be used as a small dressers, features four slide out drawers, the larger cabinet has a built-in mirror on the top drawer, and sitting on top of Nelson’s signature ebonized legs. Original ‘George Nelson Design, Herman Miller, Zeeland Michigan’ foil label in upper drawer of one cabinet.

From Herman Miller about the Basic Cabinet Series:

“We’ve become a mobile society; we no longer live and die in the house in which we were born, we don’t stay in the same community for generations. We rent apartments, buy up to bigger homes, and downsize to condos when we retire. Matched furniture suites designed to fill specific rooms don’t work very well for us anymore. What happens to those pieces when we move and they don’t fit? Nelson understood that systems of modular components were the wave of the future.

With the Basic Cabinet Series, he created a way to accommodate changing needs for storage and surfaces. The size and purpose of a room doesn’t matter. The interchangeable components allow you to create beautiful storage solutions for your big great room or your small living room. The system starts small in your small apartment and welcomes additional components if you move into larger spaces.

As with everything George Nelson designed, it’s all about the flexibility and efficiency. And the good looks, of course.”

These Primavera nighstands / small dressers by George Nelson for Herman Miller would work great in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age Mod, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Post-Modern, Contemporary or Zen / Minimalism room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical or Art Deco 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.
