Here is a couple of images. I have a dark teak plywood version.
Sorry the images are not particulary good.

massimo

Indeed.

Thanks Massimo, just did a quick google, did you know one of these sold in the USA for $7500 last May... wow!

Yes, thanks, I saw it and that one has only four shelves.
Anyway, in my opinion, that the price seems a bit exorbitant.

So what do you want for yours?

massimo

Well I don't know, I'm not interested in selling it and I'm not an expert in the field of old furnitures. Anyway I saw one at 2.000 € somewhere on the net. It was a bit damaged/rusted though.
Originally this was intended as a modular system with simple and pretty cheap elements. So 7.500 $ for a basic piece like that looks a bit too much for me. I've always thought that, generally speaking, design furnitures are somehow overpriced and especially when you look at modern antiques.

pilou

That is pure speculation like for the chairs of Jean Prouvé!
minimum 5 000 €
What a crazzy world!

Very true, have you noticed the 'distressing' on the timber.
Insane detail...
