Rare 1939 Samuel Marx Dining Room Set by Quigley

About the Item

This original dining set includes a dining table produced by Samuel Marx for the Quigley Company Marx in 1939, an important architect and designer renowned for his custom one of kind pieces. Available- 1 complete set (Set of 4 chairs. Dining table) Condition: Excellent- chairs have been professionally refinished and refurbished. Measurements: Chairs height 46” x depth 26” x width 26" x seat height 20" Table height 30” x depth 60” x width 48" Although Samuel Abraham Marx was born at the end of the 19th century, he had the eye of a modernist, as an architect, furniture designer, connoisseur, and collector. His vision was neither ostentatious nor grandiose, but subtle and quietly magnificent. Ultramodern Samuel Marx: Architect, Designer, Art Collector is the first monograph on this lesser-known but increasingly influential American designer. In more than 200 photographs, Marx expert and decorative arts dealer Liz O’Brien reveals many of his undiscovered projects, including houses that have been razed despite preservationist’s protests, as well as his range of furniture designs. Throughout his career, Marx was sought after for his ability to integrate art in well-heeled interiors. The private art collections of many of his wealthy clients have, in the past 40 years, been dispersed to major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
