Description: This French Provincial style highboy dresser showcases exquisite flame mahogany veneers and elegant serpentine drawer fronts, accented by original patinated brass handles. Crafted in the 1930s, it reflects a time when American furniture makers revived Old World European design to bring refinement and formality into the home. Highboys like this weren’t just decorative—they served as essential storage pieces in bedrooms and dressing rooms, holding everything from linens and hosiery to jewelry and personal effects. The carved flourishes and bowed silhouette signaled status and taste, at a time when furniture was still seen as generational and heirloom-worthy. Surviving in original vintage condition, this piece embodies a rare blend of beauty, functionality, and enduring craftsmanship.
Fun Historical Fact: French Provincial furniture traces its roots to the countryside regions of France, where local craftsmen adapted the ornate styles of Parisian royalty into more livable, everyday pieces. Curved drawer fronts, floral carvings, and brass hardware were practical interpretations of the Rococo style seen in chateaus and salons. When these designs made their way to America in the early 20th century, they became symbols of refinement with a touch of rustic charm. Pieces like this highboy carried the look of European aristocracy while remaining durable enough for daily use. The survival of original examples today highlights how well this blend of elegance and utility resonated across cultures and generations.

Was looking for a very specific item—and a pair—to fit the decor of my home. They had exactly what I needed at an excellent price and with white-glove delivery! Photos from their site were accurate and, because they're local, I was able to go sit in them to make sure they were what I wanted. Delivery was on-time and everyone I worked with was just so nice.
