Vintage MCM Stanley Furniture Petite Walnut China Cabinet Book or Display Case

About the Item

Spectacular Mid-20th Century Mid Century Modern Stanley Furniture petite walnut China cabinet, book or display case comprised of a walnut frame with original natural finish, recessed base, and grooved faux plank sides, sliding glass bypass doors with etched pulls, upper wood shelf with plate grooves, laminate top on buffet surface, lower left side door with recessed half-moon pull, and 3 drawers (top drawer is felt lined) with black escutcheons & aluminum pulls. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, the right top end of the base had missing veneer that was replaced and repaired by our artisan staff. There is a scratch on the drawer fronts and a horizontal scratch across the right side of the faux plank side. None of this takes away from its overall original beauty. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Mid-20th Century. A Mid-Century Modern Treat that is Pleasantly Petite! This is a DARLING Mid Century Modern petite sized China hutch, bookcase, or display cabinet by Stanley Furniture comprised of a GORGEOUS walnut frame bearing its beautiful original natural finish. It stands upon a recessed base with straight cylindrical legs and a wraparound apron. It features grooved faux plank sides, sliding glass bypass doors with lovely etched pulls in front of a fixed upper wood shelf with plate grooves to conveniently hold those fabulous dinner plates upright! The lower portion features a wood-toned laminate top on the buffet surface… so no worries concerning water rings! It has a left side door with a recessed half-moon cut-out pull detail with black painted inset, and a fixed wood shelf behind the door. It bears three drawers on the right, each with eye-catching chrome plated aluminum pulls & black escutcheons. The top drawer has interior dividers on the left and is lined with green felt to help keep the silver from tarnishing or maybe hold those pesky rolling items in place! This cabinet is the perfect size if you have a smaller living space, apartment, or loft and although it may be a bit petite in stature… it is BIG on Mid-Century Modern MAGNIFICENCE!!! Also, it has AMPLE storage space for all of your linens, books, office materials, dishes & serve ware, or anything that needs stowed away! It would be wonderful utilized as a China hutch hosting that fine China your grandma passed down, as a bookcase in your office or sitting room filled with magazines and your beautiful book collection, or as a display case or dry bar in the kitchen displaying beautiful wine & cocktail glasses in the top section and bottled beverages and bar supplies in the lower space. Honestly, the versatility is RIDICULOUS!! As limitless as your imagination!! This is an artfully crafted, highly functional piece of incredible vintage furniture. Stanley Furniture was founded in Henry County, Virginia in 1924 by Thomas Bahnson Stanley who would later become the Governor of Virginia. He resigned from his position at Basset Furniture in order to start his own company where he would hire his nephew Fred A. Stanley and his brother John W. Stanley. They decided to build a company town and in achieving that plan, Stanleytown, Virginia was developed. They built over 100 homes and the employees that worked in the factory were able to rent the homes for five dollars a month. The first piece of Stanley Furniture was a dining room suite which made its debut in 1925. They suffered financial struggles with the Great Depression and would eventually be purchased by Mead Corporation until the late 1980’s when they reemerged as a new private entity. In 2012 headquarters were relocated to High Point, North Carolina. The company experienced financial ups and downs through the years until 2017 when they were sold to Churchill Downs. Then, mid-2021 Stanley Asset Holding Ltd took over Stanley Furniture brands and they venture today into their second century of high-quality furniture craftsmanship. This is a high quality, versatile, & simply exquisite vintage piece by Stanley Furniture… So, whether you call it a China hutch, a display cabinet, a bookcase, or a dry bar… you absolutely MUST call it YOURS!!!

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...
