SPECIFICATIONS Designer: Bassett Furniture Manufacturer: Bassett Furniture Country: United States Materials: Walnut, Rosewood Period Style: Mid Century Modern Date of Manufacturer: c.1960’s Condition: Expertly Refinished Number of Items: 1 ID Number: 10554 Dimensions: 23.25”H x 24”W x 16”D Description: This Mid-Century Modern nightstand by Bassett Furniture showcases a refined combination of warm walnut and richly contrasting rosewood, creating a striking yet understated two-tone composition. The streamlined case features two spacious drawers, with the sculptural rosewood accent between them cleverly functioning as an integrated pull while adding depth and visual interest to the façade. Beautiful walnut grain flows across the drawer fronts and casework, complemented by the darker, dramatically figured rosewood detail. Slender tapered legs elevate the cabinet and give the piece the light, architectural profile characteristic of American modern furniture of the 1960s. Expertly refinished, the nightstand has been carefully restored to highlight the natural character, color, and grain of its contrasting woods while preserving its vintage integrity. Fun Historical Fact Bassett Furniture was founded in Virginia in 1902 and grew from a regional woodworking operation into one of America's major furniture manufacturers. During the postwar decades, companies like Bassett increasingly embraced modernist design as American households sought cleaner lines and more contemporary interiors. Walnut became particularly associated with American Mid-Century Modern furniture, while contrasting exotic woods such as rosewood were sometimes incorporated to give otherwise restrained designs a luxurious visual accent. This nightstand reflects that period beautifully, combining mass-produced American craftsmanship with the sophisticated material contrasts that helped define higher-style furniture of the 1960s.
