Mid-Century Modern Burl Wood Credenza by Arthur Umanoff for Dillingham

An exceptional vintage burl wood credenza designed by American designer Arthur Umanoff for Dillingham, circa 1970s. Widely recognized for his refined approach to mid-century design, Umanoff created pieces that balanced clean lines, functionality, and striking material choices. His collaborations with Dillingham remain among his most collectible works for their craftsmanship and timeless appeal.

This credenza showcases an extraordinary burl wood grain with dramatic figuring and warm tonal variation flowing seamlessly across the entire case. The three front doors display beautifully matched grain patterns that emphasize Umanoff’s attention to symmetry and detail. The natural movement within the burl creates a rich visual texture, giving the piece depth and character from every angle.

Behind the doors are spacious storage compartments with shelving, along with two pull-out drawers for additional organization of smaller items. The streamlined form is elevated by a black lacquer plinth base that contrasts beautifully against the warm burl wood tones, giving the credenza a bold yet elegant presence.

Preserved in impressive original condition, this piece carries the authenticity and character that collectors and vintage enthusiasts value. Its combination of craftsmanship, scale, and highly figured burl wood makes it a standout statement piece for any interior.
