Designer of this Glenn of California credenza/sideboard !! HELLLP!!!!  

Could it be
Gretta Grossman?
It's a beauty, wheomever designed it.
It IS a shame that there's no books on Glenn of California.

UUUGGGG!!!
Thank You very much for your response! Alas I have tried to find similar designs by her but as it stands I'm leaning towards Milo Baughman. Some of his designs have a similar base. I'm new to all of this but I found this piece in a thrift store in Berkley in perfect condition(NOT A SCRATCH) and my partner talked them down from $200 to $180. I know I got a good deal but I'm dieing to know more about this piece!! Now I see what the big "Hubbub" is about design...it's totally addicting!
Thanks again.
Anyone else got any ideas? ^_^

Why the frenzied need to know?!!!!!
The importance some people place on "designer" pedigree sometimes strikes me as antithetical to design appreciation-- will you enjoy it more if you discover that it's by an "important" designer?

.
I think my doctors got one of those, I lie on it when he want to stick things in me.
no offense meant 🙂

Hummm...?
Well "william-holden-caulfield",
No it won't make me appreciate it anymore. However I've been researching it for 2 weeks now and have come up empty. Not to mention it's the first real "find" I've ever made so I'm kind of excited about it. Also, I don't own any furniture by any known "designer" so I'm wondering why the passive aggressive attack on my request for info?
You obviously just want people to read your comment and think your above the fun of researching a "find"; so why not start a blog?
I really hope your not the kind of person who frequents this site.

HA!
None taken. Maybe I should put one of those tissue paper table cover dispensers on one end of it. ^_^

Sometimes
a pent-up frustration gets dumped on one unfortunate poster -- often a newcomer ! I can assure Monsterbug that WHC is normally a well-mannered and valued member of this community, who wouldn't swat a fly. Thanks for showing us your handsome new acquisition.
I agree that the quality of an aesthetic object is independent of its pedigree -- all kinds of good stuff has been made by anonymous hands. And we've been deluged lately with requests for identification, of everything from bookends to chamber pots (well, not quite, but almost). Still, everyone wants to know more about their possessions, especially new ones, and the likes of Antiques Roadshow, and the online markets, have fueled every collector's hopes of "scoring a find."

Thank you SDR
for your gracious comment and kind words.
It's members like YOU that will keep me coming back to ask and offer advice when I can.

Hi
Monsterbug
Is that your store - pchmodern?
I live in England, but that store is a very short walk from my elder sister's house, and I visited it earlier in the year.
It's a beautiful shop ! 🙂

Yes, there is a snob-appeal aspect to wanting to know
thew 'designer' name, but after educating yourself to know who's who and what's what, you're more likely not to buy a piece of Saarinen rip-off Burke furniture, etc.
It's especially fascinating when it comes to comes to the 'fringe' of good designs...like stuff from Glenn of California, or the Russel Wright stuff for Conant Ball. Most of this good stuff is not documented in any book, so it's natural to want to know more about a nice found piece.
For me, I want to know if I've got cheesy repros or knockoff designs by secondary companies...call me silly, but I wanta know.

HA, HA, HA!! No, It's not my store...
but it's the only website I could find that had the exact peice I have, right down to the metal Glenn of California Arcadia tag. I sent PCH an inquiry about the peice they sold but haven't recived a response yet.

Ah
Ah I see
Lovely store though 😉

Welcome to the forum Monsterbug
Great find! My granddad had, as near as I can recall, an identical sideboard, but I couldn't give you attribution as he and the piece are long gone. But I do remember it vividly from my childhood and might be on of the first "designed' pieces I became aware of.

Thanks for the "Welcome" B.T.M.
