1980s Pierre Sala Pencil Shelf Display Unit – Colourful Postmodern Design

A striking 1980s pencil shelf designed by Pierre Sala, featuring bold, oversized pencil-form uprights in primary colours with three contrasting display levels.

This playful and sculptural piece is a brilliant example of late twentieth-century postmodern design, combining practical storage with strong visual impact. Ideal for books, records, plants, or collectables, it works especially well in creative interiors, studios, or children’s spaces. The painted finish shows some small chips and marks, consistent with age and use, but remains solid, stable, and full of character.
