This vintage Mid Century Modern dresser by Widdicomb, designed by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, dates to the 1960s and showcases the refined, architectural simplicity the designer is known for. The wide, low profile and clean horizontal drawer lines create a balanced, sculptural presence, while the warm wood tone highlights the natural grain and understated elegance typical of Robsjohn-Gibbings’ work for Widdicomb. The sculpted wood pulls, shaped with a subtle teardrop profile and applied across each drawer front, add depth and shadow while providing an integrated, tactile grip that is both functional and visually refined.
The dresser features a symmetrical, eight-drawer configuration with strong horizontal banding that emphasizes its linear form. Subtle framing along the case edges and the continuous rhythm of the drawer fronts give the piece a grounded, architectural feel that works beautifully in both minimalist and more layered interiors. The overall design reflects Robsjohn-Gibbings’ mastery of proportion and restraint, blending classical influence with modernist clarity in a way that feels timeless rather than trendy.
This dresser is available in two condition options. The Vintage As Pictured option reflects its original, unrestored state, showing wear consistent with age and use, as visible in the photos. The Vintage Restored option includes a full professional refinishing process, with the surface sanded, color corrected with stains and toners as needed, and sealed in a durable satin lacquer, along with cosmetic touch-ups. This process is intended to preserve the original character while giving the dresser a refreshed finish suitable for many more decades of use.

Condition & Restoration
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.
