"Drexel Furniture Co." Secretary



This beautiful cabinet by the Drexel Furniture Company has somewhat formal, classical detailing such as a pediment with dentil moulding and shell finial as well as Greek key banding on the base.  However, the knotty pine wood and the deep sea foam green painted interior give it a nice casual feeling.  It is very versatile, and in addition to making a great dining room or den piece, it would be right at home in a large bathroom.  46" l.,  15" w.,  80" h.  American, c.1950 SOLD
