Raymond Loewy Inspired Green Chapter One Nightstand and Highboy Dresser

This bold highboy dresser from the 1970s pushes the boundaries of mid-century design. Crafted under the “Chapter One” collection by Broyhill, the piece channels the visionary aesthetic of Raymond Loewy—futuristic curves, molded plastics, and a color-pop that feels more rocket-age than bedroom. The body is crisp white lacquered wood, serving as the perfect backdrop to the brilliant molded polymer drawer fronts—this version rendered in vibrant space-age green. The top is a high-gloss laminate that captures ambient light like a showroom surface, while the curved edges and flush handle details keep the profile tight and streamlined. With generous drawer volume and weighty construction, this casepiece balances sculptural form with everyday functionality. Little of the Chapter One collection remains today, making this an outstanding opportunity. Its proportions—approximately 39.5″ W × 18″ D × 43.75″ H—make it ideal for both residential and high-end interior installations. Condition is VERY GOOD: the body has been professionally refinished to preserve the original aesthetic, the polymer fronts retain their rich color and depth, and all hardware and glides perform smoothly. Whether featured as part of a curated mid-century suite or standing alone as a statement piece, this Chapter One dresser brings a rare blend of optimism, design heritage, and vibrant character to any setting. The body has been expertly refinished: the frame and plinth base stripped, sanded, primed, and painted a crisp white, while the molded plastic drawer fronts are original and rendered in vibrant green Cycolac polymer. The laminate top has been restored and polished to a glassy high-gloss shine, reinforcing that space-age aesthetic. Rounded corners soften the geometry and give the dresser a sleek, playful presence. Functionally, the drawers are generously deep, capacious enough to hold linens, folded garments, or other items with ease; build quality is solid. The plinth base provides stable support and sits cleanly close to the floor, anchoring the bold vertical form without feeling bulky. Decoratively, this dresser is more than furniture — it’s an object of personality and nostalgia. In interiors that favor bold color, graphic contrast, and mid-century innovation, it becomes a focal point. It pairs beautifully with warm woods, metallic accents, mirror surfaces, or minimalist décor to allow its form and color to shine. Broyhill’s Chapter one collection borrowed from the plastic mold injection designs made famous by legendary designer Raymond Loewy. Like Loewy, these Chapter One Dressers employ the futuristic use of color and materials in a way that had not been seen before. The bright yellow plastic captures the playful spirit of the 1970s. The dresser is supported by a lacquered plinth base with rounded corners. This colorful, curvaceous case-good could have blended in nicely on the set of 2001 A Space Odyssey. The space-age look has never been more desirable, which may help explain the recent scarcity of all things Chapter One. We also have matching pieces including two low dressers, yellow nightstand...
