The String Pocket shelf is part of the String storage system designed by Nils Strinning in 1949. Since its launch in 2005, the light yet sturdy shelf has found its place in innumerable homes and uses. The special edition String Pocket consists of oiled oak veneer shelves with a gray pigment and side panels in metal. The shelf has a distinctly raw, industrial look that is softened by the oiled, silky surface of the shelves that, despite the gray pigment, beautifully shows the natural grain of the wood.

Designer
Swedish architect Nils Strinning (1917–2006) was one of the designers who laid the foundation for what is now widely recognized as Scandinavian style. He rose to international fame in the 1940s with his design of the iconic String shelving system.
String was launched in 1949 as part of a design competition organized by the Swedish publishing house Bonnier, and it quickly became a classic of modern, functional design. Strinning’s work has received numerous accolades, including a gold medal at the Milan Triennale, and the String shelving system remains one of Sweden’s most iconic design exports.
