Heywood Wakefield Natural Wicker Divan or Photographer's Chair circa 1900
About the Item
This charming Natural honey colored wicker divan was made by the Heywood-Wakefield Company around the turn of the last century. Features include round plied reed at post and wrapped feet, two ply braiding at the dome top, dual diagonally woven reed skirt with serpentine braiding, single closely woven arm, two back panels that are closely woven at the top and a latticework design at the bottom. Set-in cane seat.
Known in the wicker trade catalogues as a divan, it was sometimes used as a prop in photographers studios.
"Heywood Brothers was established in 1826; Wakefield Company was founded in 1855. As the 1800s wound down and the 1900s approached, rattan and wicker furniture became increasingly en vogue. The two popular companies became major rivals. Fortunately, this rivalry didn’t lead to destruction, but rather to peace, harmony, synergy, and greater success. In 1897, Heywood Brothers and Wakefield Company merged, becoming Heywood Brothers & Wakefield Company."
