Gilbert Rohde (1894 -1944) designed this rare sofa side table for the Herman Miller Furniture Company in 1934. Constructed with East India laurel veneers and chrome plated steel, the asymmetrical base is unique in Rohde’s work and only repeated in a similar table with integral lamp. The table, known as number 3549 in Herman Miller’s 1939 catalog, was numbered 135491 in a Herman Miller 1936 promotion piece titled Authentic Style Book of Modern Furniture. The table is 30” long, 13” wide and 20 ½” high.
