Large 1960s Modular Shelving System ‘Pira’ by Olaf Pira for String Sweden
By Olof Pira, String Design AB
Located in Sherborne, Dorset
A large run of 1960s modular shelving system ‘Pira’ designed by Olaf Pira for string of Sweden, made of teak and steel. Designed as a ‘tension’ system where each upright is trapped between the floor and ceiling eliminating the need for wall fixings, making it suitable for room dividing as each of the cabinets and shelves are finished both sides. Regarding its layout, the possibilities are endless - the photos were taken to illustrate the set in its entirety. Comprising: 8 uprights 247cm tall including the tension springs – aftermarket wall brackets have been made to allow wall fixing 3 units with double sliding wooden doors and a single adjustable shelf within 1 six-drawer unit 40cm deep 2 units with double sliding glass doors and a single glass shelf within 30cm deep 19 shelves – 16 at 20cm deep, 1 at 30cm deep and 2 at 40cm deep 1 table with legs (all necessary clips and brackets included) The overall length as seen in the photograph is 7 x 90 cm – 630 cm or 20.6 feet. All cabinets and shelves are 90cm wide. If the tension system is to be retained in the future, the uprights can be cut down to fit a lower ceiling or additional box section steel purchased (common size) to extend them. In excellent original condition, a few marks from use as you would expect. There is a faint water ring on the tabletop. Pots image 8: Please note the 100 West German pots...
