Edward Wormley Sideboard Model 671 A for Dunbar Custom Order 1953

About the Item

An Edward Wormley walnut and Japanese fir sideboard , model 671A for Dunbar, circa 1953. A rare exquisite Japanese inspired walnut cabinet with two drawers with cast bronze pulls and featuring four sliding walnut doors with inset panels of oil drop foil paper over Japanese Elm. This was a custom option from Dunbar and is rare. The oil drop foil insets resemble Laverne's handmade wallpaper and may have been sourced by Dunbar for this application. There is a subtle shimmer to the foil panels in a raking light. The interior has four adjustable shelves and two pull-out trays. The cabinet is raised on four tapered legs with exposed mortise and tenon joinery and has a green Dunbar Berne Indiana label. In addition( see image #3) we have separate listings for a bookcase/ plate stand and a dining table with leather cuffs which were all part of the original dining room suite. If interested in purchasing the suite we will be happy to offer you a group price. The last image is of a Dunbar storage cabinet with similar insets of an oil drop faux tortoise foil. The sideboard is in very good condition.
