Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin Chest of Drawers, Heritage Henredon

Creator: Frank Lloyd Wright - Heritage-Henredon
Offered by: Appleton

Description
A classic four drawer Honduran mahogany nightstand designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for his Taliesin line of furniture manufactured by Heritage Henredon of Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1955.
This desk and the typewriter table slide apart to create a cool work station.
This rare Frank Lloyd Wright design also may serve as a sofa table / bedside table, and features an arts and crafts related design with signature greek-key edge detailing that bears his signature and a red chop mark.
The Taliesin line was only in production for two years, 1955/1956.
Due to its design which leans more to his Arts and Crafts work and not his more contemporary Usonian designs the furniture did not find as broad an audience as it might have in the mid-1950s in comparison to Herman Miller, Knoll, Brown- Saltman, Widdicomb, Baker etc.
This accounts for its relative rarity and being signed makes it quite desirable and collectible today.
The cabinet shows some light signs of age.
Beautiful and ready to use (and love) immediately.
The cabinet is in very good condition.
