About the Item

The Bassett Aztec dresser, designed by Leo Jiranek and produced from April 1963 to March 1967, is a standout piece from the Mid-Century Modern era with several unique features The dresser features intricately carved wooden handles and metal knobs inspired by Aztec motifs, reflecting the 1950s and ’60s fascination with archaeological and exotic designs. Despite its “Aztec” name, the dresser is finished in a rich “Mayan walnut” tone, which often leads to confusion with the Mayan collection. This deep, warm finish enhances the walnut grain, giving it a luxurious and distinctive look. This five drawer dresser is built with solid wood and veneer, the dresser features dovetail joinery for durability and smooth drawer operation, showcasing Bassett’s high-quality craftsmanship. This dresser’s limited production run and its blend of cultural influences with modern functionality make it a rare and sought-after item, often misidentified as part of the Mayan line due to the shared finish name Dimensions 40W 19D 45H
