Early to Mid-20th Century Art Moderne Maple Small 3 Drawer Chest or Cabinet
By Russel Wright, Bissman Furniture Company, Conant Ball
Located in Topeka, KS
Wonderful Early to Mid-20th Century Art Moderne solid maple small 3 drawer chest or cabinet in the style of Bissman and after Russel Wright for Conant Ball. This piece has been attributed based upon archived research including online sources, vintage documentation and catalogs, designer literature, and other materials however, it is not signed or marked in any way. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, No outstanding flaws detected just a beautiful original finish with all its wonderful age patina. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Early to Mid-20th Century. NOTE: If you love this Art Moderne maple 3 drawer chest or cabinet we have the matching nightstand and twin headboard & footboard listed here for sale individually and a separate listing for the set if they are still available. Every now and then you come across something special and you instantly fall in LOVE… Immediate, undeniable attraction… can’t hardly take your eyes off of it… adrenaline fills your soul and you simply MUST have it… THIS is that something!!! This is a marvelous cabinet or petite chest of drawers comprised of solid maple featuring three stacked drawers with phenomenal hand carved or hand sculpted bowl shaped handles rather like oversized cup pulls and fantastic sled style legs. Its size is comparable to a bachelor’s chest… a bit smaller than a standard chest of drawers but it has adequate storage space inside those functional drawers!! This is a classic beauty with an Art Moderne style that you are sure to love for years to come. It is designed in a style after Russel Wright for Conant Ball or Bissman. My mother (who is a retired interior designer and has been identifying vintage pieces since before I was born… and I am vintage...
