1960's Danish Teak Highboy Chest Dresser With Carved Oval Recessed Pulls
By Kai Kristiansen, Poul Volther, Børge Mogensen
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Just look at the matched pattern grain drawer fronts on this early Danish highboy. The fiery cathedrals cover all 7-drawers and showcase the use of the natural elements to compliment the Scandinavian design. This chest is an exemplary specimen of Danish cabinet making. Tightly dovetailed drawers, beautiful teak wood and easy gliding drawers are hallmarks of the superior craftsmanship. There is no particle board anywhere. Instead we see solid pine wood, covered in thick teak...

Belgian Black Marble Dining Table & Asian Modern Black Lacquer Dining Chairs Set
By James Mont
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Vintage 1980s black and white Neo Deco dining set. The luxurious black marble pedestal base features striking white veins and fields of mystical taupe-gray. It’s almost as if a thunderstorm was captured in stone. Dynamic white bands streak through the blackness like lighting bolts in a storm darkened sky. The 1980s enjoyed an Art Deco revival which came to be known as “Neo Deco.” This dining set is a prime example of the Neo Deco zeitgeist. The graduating arches on the chair backs emulate The Chrysler Building’s crown… an Art Deco architectural icon. The marble base’s silhouette is also informed by Art Deco architecture. The table has been updated with a newer 48″ diameter round glass top. No worry of stains on these vintage white seats. The previous owner was meticulous. In fact, the chair seats were still covered in the original plastic when we acquired the set. The base itself is a work of art, beautifully exhibiting the tenants of post-modern design. It is both decorative and simple. The designer has arranged slabs of sumptuous black marble in descending size, emanating from the center. This array of slabs cumulatively form a diamond shape when viewed from the top. The dramatic, high-back, chairs have a glossy lacquer finish that captures the same sheen as the stone pedestal table base...
