Description: This expertly refinished Mid-Century Modern Highboy from Heywood Wakefield is part of their celebrated “Riviera” line, one of the company’s most iconic collections of the 1950s. Designed in solid birch wood, the dresser highlights the sculpted, softly curved drawer fronts and rounded edges that defined the Riviera aesthetic, combining elegance with everyday functionality. Its warm honey-toned finish beautifully brings out the shimmering grain patterns, adding both brightness and sophistication to any space. With four generous drawers, this piece balances form and function in true Heywood Wakefield style. More than just storage, it represents an important chapter in American design history.
Fun Historical Fact: Introduced in the late 1940s, the Riviera line was a breakthrough collection that solidified Heywood Wakefield’s reputation as a leader in modern American furniture. The line’s streamlined curves and light birch finishes symbolized optimism and progress in postwar America, making it a staple in new suburban homes. Today, Riviera pieces are some of the most collectible and celebrated designs from the company’s mid-century legacy.
