Item Description:
Here is a very nice 4-drawer chest by Heywood Wakefield for their Cadence line, circa 1955. This chest of drawers offers lots of storage along with a very modern look. This piece has its original Sable Grey finish and there are very minimal signs of wear. The interior of each drawer has a robin's egg factory blue base which adds to the character of the piece. Each drawer has 2 solid brass pulls with a white tip. This piece sits sturdily and is in overall good condition for its age. There is one hand-length dent in the backing of the chest that can be seen in our last image, this can not be seen or affect the integrity of the piece but we would like to point that out in advance. Please feel free to reach out anytime with questions and thanks for looking!
"In 1955 Heywood Wakefield began experimenting with new styles, materials, and finishes in the Modern line, which were similar to those being used by other contemporary furniture manufacturers. For instance, the standard finish for the newly-introduced Cadence line's living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture was Sable Grey." - (ref. Heywood Wakefield Modern Furniture by Steve and Roger Rouland).
