Origin: New Zealand

A striking example of New Zealand mid-century modern design, this original Philips Heritage modular wall system combines warm timber cabinetry with a beautifully minimal black steel framework.
Designed around flexibility, the system comprises individual cabinets and shelves suspended between freestanding steel uprights, allowing the configuration to be rearranged and adapted to suit the space. The combination of timber, black steel and distinctive deep-set circular handles gives the piece a strong Danish Modern influence, while retaining its own unmistakable Australasian character.
This particularly substantial three-bay configuration offers an exceptional combination of display and concealed storage, making it equally suited to a living room, dining room, home office, record collection or retail interior.
This complete system comprises:
- Glass-front display cabinet
- Two-drawer floating console
- Drop-down cabinet, ideal as a drinks cabinet, workspace or concealed storage
- Two-door storage cabinet
- Three long timber shelves
- Additional adjustable display shelf
- Four original freestanding black steel uprights with timber-capped feet
- Original brackets and fittings
One of the system's greatest strengths is its modularity. The cabinets and shelves can be repositioned along the uprights, allowing the arrangement to be changed while maintaining the light, architectural quality that makes modular mid-century furniture so desirable.
The cabinetry features beautifully warm timber grain throughout, complemented by distinctive sculptural circular handles, a detail particularly associated with Philips Heritage pieces. The black steel framework provides a graphic contrast while allowing the cabinetry to appear almost suspended within the room.
The unit presents beautifully in original vintage condition, retaining the character and patina expected of an authentic piece of this age.
Philips Heritage modular systems are New Zealand made and seldom seen on the Australian market, particularly in a configuration of this scale and completeness.
A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive and highly functional piece of New Zealand mid-century design.
