Low mid-century Bookshelf by Heywood-Wakefield
By Heywood-Wakefield Co.
Located in Trenton, NJ
Bring home a classic slice of mid-century modern history with this Heywood Wakefield low bookshelf, dressed in the brand’s beloved champagne finish. Compact yet full of character, the piece measures 36 inches wide by 11 inches deep and stands 32.5 inches tall—a versatile size for any room needing a little extra storage with a whole lot of style.
This bookshelf exemplifies the best of mid-century craftsmanship. The solid maple frame, gracefully softened at the edges, creates a gentle silhouette that complements both vintage and contemporary interiors. The champagne finish enhances the natural grain of the wood, producing a soft golden sheen that feels warm and inviting.
It features two adjustable height shelves offering three levels of open storage—ideal for books, ceramics, or small plants. Whether you're filling it with classic novels or showcasing collectibles, the design encourages personalization. The shallow depth keeps the footprint minimal while still offering ample display space.
The bookshelf’s low profile makes it an excellent choice for under windows or as a base for wall art. It’s a flexible piece that transitions easily from room to room and function to function—from a child’s room bookshelf to an entryway...

MCM 2-Piece China Hutch Cabinet Buffet by Heywood Wakefield Contessa Collection
By Heywood-Wakefield Co.
Located in Topeka, KS
Mid-Century Modern 2-piece china hutch, cabinet, or buffet by Heywood Wakefield for the Contessa Collection. Comprised of 2-pieces a top hutch & a bottom buffet in a dark cherrywood, woven wicker basket weave or caned door fronts, brass toned pulls, & slim steel legs. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. There are nicks on the left side of the buffet edge toward the front. Stiffener has been added underneath buffet as the cabinet had sagged in the middle making doors uneven. Stiffener corrected that issue. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1960’s.
In 1959, the Heywood Wakefield “Contessa” slogan was "Wood for warmth and grace ... steel for strength and rigidity." "Furniture of Slender Elegance." And does this China cabinet ever fit that description. The Contessa line features a darker cherrywood, gold or brass toned accents, and slim steel legs. This cabinet has 2 pieces. A bottom buffet that features brass toned pulls that open two sets of double doors. There are three drawers on the right side with a silverware tray in the top drawer. The left side is open storage. The top hutch features two rolling side doors with woven wicker basket weave, or caned, door fronts and three shelves in the center. The whole cabinet stands on slim steel legs and exudes mid-century modern magnificence! This awesome, versatile china cabinet or buffet will look amazing whether you place it in the dining room, living room, study, or the kitchen. It is adaptable enough to blend right in whether your design style leans to Mid-Century Modern, Scandinavian Modern, industrial, southwestern, or modern country.
In 1897, two prominent furniture companies, Heywood Brothers and Wakefield Company merged and created Heywood Brothers & Wakefield Company; the name would be shortened to Heywood-Wakefield in 1921. The new company rose to popularity in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s with its solid wood, Art Deco-inspired, mid-century modern furniture. In 1992, South Beach Furniture Company acquired the rights to the Heywood-Wakefield name. After realizing how in demand vintage Heywood Wakefield pieces were, production began on new pieces that remained true to the style, quality, and values of the original company. Today's Heywood-Wakefield is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the name and its famous pieces while incorporating new and contemporary technology which allows new generations to appreciate the classic looks from a classic company.
This is a fabulous piece by Heywood Wakefield’s Contessa...
