"Vintage Davis Cabinet Company low chest of drawers / dresser / nightstand / TV console. Made of ebonized cerused oak featuring rectangular form with asian styling and three drawers with brass hardware. These words of our venerable leader introduce this short history of our firm which began in 1929.

Here, they manufactured primarily veneered bedroom suites and sewing machine cabinets...
