This is a gorgeous glossy and freshly lacquered mid-century modern dresser. The maker’s mark shows Red Lion Furniture Co, which was originally a radio and television cabinet company and actually participated in the 1939 World’s Fair. They had showrooms in NYC, Philadelphia, San Francisco and LA. The design is most likely attributed to T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, the renowned British born architect, turned furniture designer.
The ring pull hardware are practically front door knockers they are so substantial! These are all brass and have been cleaned, polished and protectorate has been applied to prevent future tarnish.
This piece has been loved by prior generations so minor imperfections should be expected. Any noticeable dings or scratches remaining after the repair, restoration and lacquer process is pictured.
