Danish 1960s ‘Floating’ Modular CADO Shelf System Wall Unit by Poul Cadovius

This Danish, 1960s, Cado ‘Royal’ wall system is a true statement piece, created to make a bold visual impact and exemplifying the ‘form and function’ MCM aesthetic. Designed by Poul Cadovius and retailed through Heal’s, London, this system is a very clever piece of engineering with the different modular elements ‘floating’ on two tall teak uprights that are secured directly to the wall. Each piece hangs on pegs without the need for bolts or additional fittings. This particular single bay is perfect for the audiophile with storage for vinyl in the record cabinet and a large shelf for your turntable below. And because it’s entirely wall-mounted, not in contact with the floor, there won’t be vibrations or the risk of stylus jumps through the ground for the ultimate clean, undistorted sound.  A multi-faceted, multi-functional piece for display, play and storage that you can configure to suit.
