Description: This expertly refinished walnut highboy dresser was produced by Basic Witz in the 1960’s, showcasing the clean, sculpted lines and tapered legs that define Mid-Century Modern design. The rich walnut grain and recessed drawer fronts highlight the brand’s reputation for marrying elegant form with everyday function. While the interior bears a Kents Interiors label, that tag reflects the original retailer that sold the piece, not its maker—a common practice among furniture showrooms of the era. With four deep drawers, it provides both striking presence and practical storage, making it a timeless addition to any interior. Its craftsmanship and proportions reflect the optimism and refinement of postwar American design.
Fun Historical Fact: Founded in Waynesboro, Virginia, Basic Witz Furniture Company grew to be one of the nation’s largest furniture producers during the mid-20th century. Their pieces were distributed across the country through major retailers and department stores, which is why many surviving examples, like this dresser, carry store labels instead of factory marks. Basic Witz furniture became a staple of American homes in the 1950s and 60s, offering durability, smart design, and modern style at an accessible price point. Today, their work remains highly collectible for its balance of practicality and iconic Mid-Century aesthetics.
Expertly Refinished: With over 15 years of experience, our workshop has followed a careful process of restoration, showcasing our passion and creativity for vintage designs that can seamlessly be incorporated with many interior decors. Enjoy! :)
