- Description:
- This Product Literature, in the collection of The Henry Ford, contains information related to Herman Miller Product Number 3321 in the 3321 "Modern Series". This series was designed by Gilbert Rohde.
The literature states:
"The wood is American Walnut, using a combination of three grains; straight stripe, burl, and butt. Finish: Natural grey brown. The pulls, legs and other structural parts are in polished and brush finished chromium plated metal.
The design features the structural use of metal, glass and mirrors. Notice the appearance of lightness effected in the massive buffet by the inconspicuous metal supports, and the transparency of the china cabinet in which glass has been used for the door and one side in such a way that no frame or corner posts are necessary, thus achieving the greatest appearance of lightness in a massive piece.
The combination serving table and tea wagon is made almost entirely of glass and polished chromium.
It is suggested that this suite be displayed with a plain round mirror, 28" to 30" in diameter, hung over the buffet. The mirror can be frameless or can have a perfectly plain narrow chromium frame.
The buffet is equipped with a compartment for bottles, etc. , and with four cork lined trays for glasses. These are made so that they can be removed entirely and used as serving trays.
Chairs are covered with beige colored lacquered fabric. . . "
