About the Item

Design Institute America pair of etageres, USA, 1970s. Freestanding etageres with chrome-plated steel frames, six glass shelves each, and a Greek key detail at the bases. The 3/8 inch thick glass shelves are substantial enough for the display of moderately heavy items. Note: these etageres are frequently attributed to Milo Baughman. DIA's founder, Marty Smith, told us directly that Baughman had no involvement with the company.
