Gerald Thurston (born in 1914, U.S.A) was one of the most innovative American lighting designers of the postwar era. He earned acclaim for his lamps and lighting fixtures, which exemplified the streamlined forms and sleek materials of the mid 20th century. His long-term work with lighting company Lightolier over the course of the 1950s and 1960s resulted in some of his most iconic lamps, which are still coveted by collectors today.

 

Condition:

 

Some slight wear to the brass, base, hood and knob –  nothing noticeable, but otherwise in fantastic vintage condition. These have been rewired with new gold fabric cords and a new bulb and switch socket.

To bring this chest up-to-date it has been sanded, stained, painted and covered in wax to enhance the tiger oak grain. Sections of the paint are smooth or impasto (thick textured surface).

The chest is in excellent vintage condition; the drawers open smoothly and the chest stands solid.

Please remember that this is a vintage piece, therefore it will show signs of character and slight wear unless otherwise specified. That being said we do refurbish all of our pieces to a good standard.
