Description
This Brasilia Credenza was delicately restored to preserve the original patina. The Brasilia line has elevated to a high-end status that has made these pieces very sought after and subsequently harder to find. We love this line and have never seen two pieces that look identical. Not only because of the variations in walnut grain, but the way that they age. We did our absolute best to recondition this mini-credenza while preserving the rich, oily patina. The top was professionally refinished by our in-house cabinet shop to match the original and untouched sections. We’re certain you won’t be able to tell the difference. It’s a delicate balancing act to maintain originality while also recondition issues that need improvement. It’s a process we are continuing to perfect. Otherwise detailed top to bottom, inside and out. We’re certain you won’t find a nicer example of this credenza anywhere.

Mid-Century Modern Broyhill Brasilia Credenza featuring their famous arched edifice. Vintage 1960s. One of the most sought after American furniture lines of the period. Walnut wood construction with Oscar Niemeyer’s iconic inverted diamond arches. Open the sculpted, hinged, arch doors to reveal open cabinet space, ideal for 12″ records.
The Brasilia line by Broyhill was created in 1962. The signature lines and waves of Brasilia furniture were inspired by the distinct architecture of the city of Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. The city of Brasilia was planned and developed between 1956 and 1960. When viewed from above, the city’s shape resembles a plane or bird, which is mimicked on much of Broyhill’s original fabric and tiles. Most of the city’s architecture was the vision of a man named Oscar Niemeyer.
