The Mystique Credenza in Smooth Antiqued White Bronze is designed by Stephanie Odegard and takes its surface from one of her rug designs. The exterior faces, front and both sides, are entirely sculpted from solid pieces of teak, the abstract organic forms translated from the textile pattern into three-dimensional carving. The Smooth Antiqued White Bronze metal cladding is fitted over the sculpted surface, the metal following the relief. Four push-to-open doors sit within the carved front. The piece stands on a plinth base at 80 inches wide and 30.5 inches tall.Exterior faces are sculpted from solid teak before Smooth Antiqued White Bronze metal sheets are pattern-cut and fitted over each carved surface. The three-dimensional organic relief requires the metal to follow compound forms; each section is secured with flush-set nails. Interior: teak veneer with adjustable shelves.Measures 80 by 18 by 30.5 inches. Four push-to-open doors, adjustable interior shelves. Functions as a credenza, sideboard, buffet, or media console. Available in all twelve standard finishes. Custom sizing available. Made entirely to order.Designed by Stephanie Odegard for the Stephanie Odegard Collection. The Mystique Credenza is the most direct connection in the furniture collection between Stephanie Odegard's carpet practice and her furniture: the abstract organic surface of a rug design, carved into solid teak and clad in metal. Produced in Udaipur by artisan workshops whose skills in sculptural carving and hand-applied metalwork have been in continuous practice for generations.Made to order, each piece may show slight variations that are a natural result of handmade metal-clad production. The Smooth Antiqued White Bronze surface will gradually mellow in tone over time, which is part of the material's natural character.The images shown in this listing may be photographed in different lighting conditions or may include 3D illustrations created to represent the available finishes. We warmly encourage customers to request an individual sample or a complete sample set of all twelve finishes to experience the surface, tone, and character firsthand.Please note that moisture in the air, seasonal climate shifts, and the natural movement of wood over time may cause the metal surface to develop slight wrinkles or occasional bubbling. We use well-seasoned reclaimed teak and high-quality marine-grade MDF wherever technically possible to minimise these natural effects, but complete stability of metal cannot be guaranteed.All smooth finishes will show subtle tool marks. These are not defects but a natural and unavoidable result of hand-working and hand-polishing metal sheets. Our hammered finishes are recommended where a more textured, forgiving surface is preferred.None of our metal-clad pieces are sealed with a permanent protective coating. This allows the metal to age naturally and beautifully over time. We polish every piece carefully before packing. A clear PU coat can be applied on request.The antiqued white bronze finish will react with natural elements the fastest in the beginning, but it too will stop reacting and settle into a stable state like copper after 6-12 months. Since it is already antiqued and looks intentionally tarnished, this early reaction does not change the overall appearance. In that way, this surface is the most forgiving.The antiqued white bronze finish is done by applying an acidic chemical over the white bronze to recreate a natural patination. Like the aging of silver, copper, or brass, the final result and colour uniformity cannot be guaranteed. The goal of this finish is to achieve rainbow-like tones with dull, shiny, cloudy, and lightly streaked patches to give an illusion of antiquing.As a default practice, we offer a protective wipe-on PU coat only on this finish. If a designer prefers the natural, uncoated aging, we can leave it untreated just like the other finishes. A PU coat helps keep the surface looking the same as when shipped, but it does not create a fully uniform patina; natural variation will always remain part of this finish.
