Tension pole free standing rose gold aluminum Omni wall unit by George Nelson

This George Nelson 'Omni' modular wall unit transforms the iconic shelving system into a statement of modern luxury. Featuring bespoke rose-gold aluminum, it imparts a warm, contemporary sheen that elevates its mid-century pedigree. The structure remains faithful to Nelson's vision: slender, spring-loaded tension poles—now rose-gold—ascend from floor to ceiling, supporting free-floating teak shelves. This modular marvel requires no wall mounting unless desired, enabling it to function as either wall-depth shelving for display or a sculptural room divider. The rose-gold finish is extremely rare, making this unit highly collectible. Designed for adaptability, the system can be recomposed across ceiling heights or layout needs. The tension mechanism visualizes balance and lightness, and the subtle blush of its poles contrasts with the richly toned wood. Attributed to George Nelson’s Omni group for Herman Miller, this system is a coveted example of American modern engineering. The set includes four spring-loaded tension poles, nine walnut shelves, 25 brackets with braces, and two wall mounts. The rails can be adjusted between 246 and 249 cm in height. The unit is in very good condition, with only minor age-appropriate blemishes on the metal rails and supports, and minor imperfections on the walnut shelves.
