Title: Rare Mid-Century Modern Nine-Drawer Dresser in Walnut by Milo Baughman for Dircetional, USA, c. 1960s

About: As rare as it is architecturally alluring this extraordinary nine-drawer dresser, designed by the prolific Milo Baughman for the Directional Furniture Co., is a true Mid-Century Modern gem. Constructed from a mix of solid and veneered black walnut with exceptional woodgrains and featuring an elaborate set of bi-folding, hinged doors this extraordinary case piece is impressive both in scope and form.

Born in Kansas in 1923, Baughman became one of the most generative American designers of the Mid-Century period. Utilizing the consummate Mid-Century materials such as chrome, stainless steel, glass and walnut he created a new visual vocabulary, building on the legacy of such designers as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer, but infused with the style and ease of the American West Coast.

Baughman worked with dozens of companies throughout his extensive career but his defining collaboration began in 1953, when he started working with Thayer Coggin, the North Carolina manufacturer that still produces Milo Baughman furniture today. This partnership lasted five decades and produced enduring classics such as the cantilevered 989-103 Chair and the circular 825-301 LAF Sofa.

This robust dresser is a true collector's item, perfect for those who appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of American Modern furniture and the timeless works of Milo Baughman himself. With it's unique black walnut construction, nine drawers for maximum storage capacity and intricate bi-folding hinged doors this dresser is sure to make a BOLD impression any space it inhabits. Make it yours today before it's gone forever. NOTE* currently available with matching tall-boy gentlemen's dresser.
