Discover the charm of the 1960s with our exclusive Mid-century Modern dresser, a testament to the renowned craftsmanship of American of Martinsville. This piece embodies the essence of vintage elegance, masterfully constructed from high-quality walnut. Its unique design seamlessly blends the quintessential American MCM style with elements of Danish Modern, creating a versatile and timeless piece. The dresser boasts ample storage capacity, featuring deep drawers that are perfect for organizing various items. The top section of the dresser cleverly conceals three drawers behind two elegantly folding doors, each adorned with a round brass knob, adding a touch of subtle Asian influence to its minimalist design. The lower section includes two more drawers, showcasing rectangular cut-outs as handles, a homage to the Danish Modern influence prevalent in the United States during the 1960s.

The beauty of the walnut used in this dresser is a highlight, carefully selected to showcase rich vertical graining on the top and contrasting horizontal graining on the bottom. This minimalist approach allows the natural beauty of the wood to shine, making it a stunning centerpiece in any room. The dresser's design is elevated by its slightly splayed legs and a striking stretcher, enhancing its overall aesthetic appeal. Beyond its aesthetic allure, this dresser is incredibly functional and adaptable, fitting seamlessly into various spaces like hallways for blanket storage, children's rooms for organizing clothes, books, and toys, or even as a statement piece in a living area. Crafted with the enduring quality of traditional American craftsmanship, this dresser is not just a piece of furniture, but a durable, stylish investment that promises to enhance your home for decades to come.

Condition & Restoration

We photograph each piece in its current condition and offer two ways to purchase: as-pictured or restored. This approach gives you a clear and honest view of the item and allows you to choose the level of finish that best suits your needs.

As-Pictured:
Choosing the as-pictured option means you’ll receive the item in its current state with light cleaning and basic touch-ups completed in our warehouse. We ensure that drawers, doors, and structural elements are functional, but no deep refinishing work is performed. This option is ideal for those who appreciate the charm and patina of original vintage finishes, want to avoid additional restoration costs, or prefer a quicker turnaround without the lead time required for refinishing. It's also a great choice if you’re a collector or designer looking to integrate the piece into a space with a lived-in aesthetic.

Restored:
Selecting the restored option includes our full professional refinishing process. Once selected, the piece is transported to our workshop, where we address surface damage like lacquer failure, chips, water marks, and deep scratches. Our team sands, stains, and seals each surface where appropriate, restoring the finish while preserving the character of the original design. We also carefully adjust doors, drawers, and hardware to ensure smooth operation and reliable function. The result is a fully restored vintage furniture piece, ready for daily use and built to last for decades to come.

This dual-option model gives you the flexibility to choose what’s right for your space, style, and timeline—without compromising on quality or transparency.

Note:
Some items may only be available for purchase with restoration included. In these cases, the original condition does not meet our standards for resale without a full professional refinish.
This ensures that every piece we ship—restored or otherwise—meets the level of quality and functionality we stand behind.

Conversely, certain items—such as lighting, upholstered pieces, or otherwise—are only offered as-pictured, as we typically don’t refinish these types of items.
