Please help identify Singer & Sons credenza as in age, what it actually was used for and if a Gio Ponti design, also any idea of value would be appreciated. Thank you.

Bertha Schaefer
The cabinet is a Bertha Schaefer design for Singer. See, e.g.:

Not that rare, though obviously not common. I dunno anyone who collects B.S. designs, for what it's worth.
Value -- who knows? Maybe a few hundred U.S. dollars on Ebay and a few thousand at a fancy NYC / Paris / LA store?
