Yeah, the Italian plural is credenze, the English plural is credenzas, and you can use either! (Once the word has been lent it uses English plurals and not, say, Latin plurals, as I woefully discovered decades ago. So it's octopuses & viruses and not octopi & virii, which is wrong and communist and ungodly, and also continues to annoy me, but there it is.)
It's a very nice piece made from real wood, and it very much resembles (with the curved wood handles) some furniture I inherited from 1958. So I would put the piece in the 1955-65 range.
We recently ordered a credenza (56”) from Habitat for Humanity based only on a picture from their website. Just $90 (+$150 delivery), I was a bit sceptical but it turned out pretty good. A few scratches but seemingly solid otherwise.
I will expect regular state-of-the-credenza updates going forward, please.

nicely done phoebe
Congrats 😀.
"Credenza" is Italian — it also covers some meanings of "belief", and that does have to do with the piece of furniture. Plural is "credenze"
Congratulations! Somehow furniture has become just an incredible amount of work.
That is a terrific credenza
Beautiful

Congratulations! Next house, I want a decent credenza, so you have achieved one of my life goals. (Mine are small ambitions.)
