Mid Century Heywood Wakefield Expandable Dining Set
This stunning mid-century modern dining set by Heywood-Wakefield is a rare gem, showcasing the brand’s signature craftsmanship and sculptural design. The table and chairs are finished in the iconic “Platinum” tone, a warm, soft blonde that collectors covet. The set includes six chairs and an expandable drop-leaf table, all marked with the original Heywood-Wakefield stamp. The table’s arched wishbone leg base is a standout feature with its curved, architectural stance. Designed for versatility, the table transitions effortlessly from compact to expansive: tuck the drop leaves down and it seats two, lift the leaves and it fits four comfortably, then insert the central leaves to seat six or more! Each chair is upholstered in a textured brown wool-blend fabric with a sculpted frame. The curved backrest and gently tapered legs echo the fluidity of the table’s base, creating a harmonious and distinctly mid-century silhouette. These chairs are comfortable and solid, balancing form and function.
This set is perfect for anyone looking to complete their Heywood-Wakefield collection.
Here is more info from the original owners:
“It appears to have have been built in 1945 the year WWII ended, but marketing didn’t begin with supply chains for a few years after that.
Dad was at the Pentagon in DC when mom bought the furniture around 1955 when I was born at Fort Belvoir, Virginia it was put in storage in the late 50s early 60s while we were in South Korea and then it went to Belleville Illinois, then to Dover, Delaware while dad was flying to Vietnam and then back to Oxford, Ohio his last year in ROTC at Miami University and then to Fayetteville, North Carolina and then Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and then Croasdaile Village for the last 20 years.
The furniture just had a good life, hope it still has more years.”
