About us

silla was born out of a passion for beautiful objects: special pieces with aesthetic and historical significance. In 2009, after years of collecting, Andrew Silla and his wife Grace began to work privately with clients from their residence in Southern Maryland. Quickly outgrowing the space, the business was moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania in 2012 and after several warehouse location changes it was firmly settled in the present brick-and-mortar location in downtown Shippensburg.

The 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery is home to a large collection of works of art and estate jewelry. We specialize in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 with a particular emphasis on the Animaliers and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display.

MODERNIST BIRDSEYE-MAPLE CREDENZA BY GIOVANNI OFFREDI FOR SAPORITI
Italy, circa 1970s, unmarked
Item # 112LEM01P-1

A delightful three-door credenza designed by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti entirely in birdseye-maple veneered surfaces, it is a brilliant piece that absolutely glows under the shimmering acrylic varnish surface throughout. The doors are set with original tapering-twist bronze hardware and open to reveal a shelved interior. These shelves are adjustable using original knobs along the sides. It rests over squared bracket feet. The credenza is unmarked, but is a well-known design by Offredi and many marked cabinets exist in archives for comparison.

Note, we may still have one other matching credenza cabinet to this still available in the shop - browse our full inventory or contact us for availability.


Measurements: 59" W x 26 1/8" D x 24 1/2" H

Condition Report: Wear to the acrylic varnish, including: along the top left edge with spot of wear/graying of varnish and slight impression, left side with some scuffing and faint scratches that have been mostly polished out, hairline striations along the doors - specifically below the hardware on each door, along the lower edges of the sides, speck blemishes here and there; overall remaining in "good" condition. Various veneer losses to shelves (unnoticeable without taking the shelves out). We are happy to send video showcasing every surface flaw upon request.
