Raymond Loewy was one of the greatest industrial designers of this century.
He was highly prolific throughout his long career, his work included the prosaic and iconic, from American shopping centers to the interior of Skylab, designing furniture, graphics, cars and many other products and was the first designer ever to be featured on the cover of Time magazine.
Loewy formed Compagnie de L'Esthetique Industrielle (CEI), in Paris, in 1952.
CEI, a separate operation from the New York office, was established to bring American-style industrial design to Europe.
One of CEI's popular designs was the DF2000 series, to which this credenza belongs, consisted of a wide variety of case furniture including wardrobes, chests-of-drawers and cabinets, manufactured by Doubinsky Freres and sold in the United States beginning in 1968. Although only manufactured until the early 1970s, today the DF2000 furniture is hard to find collectible pieces.
