Edward Wormley

A beautiful coffee table in walnut and mahogany.The table comes in a very good condition, both the table top and the legs. The lower part of the table is crafted in an interesting way and gives the table a special character. The legs end on brass details. Manufactured by Dunbar. His designs at Indiana based company Dunbar started going clearly into the style of Mid-century Modern since 1944. He was given a contract there under which he would produce two lines of furniture each year, one traditional and one modern. As such, his take on on modernity was a rootedness in historical influences with strikingly inventive breaches. T.H. Robsjohn Gibbings, Paul Mccobb or Estelle & Levine Laverne come to mind when looking at Wormleys iconic pieces.
