Dynamically Drexel!!! What a fabulous end table, chest, or cabinet from the Weatherwood Collection by Drexel we have to offer to you!!! It is comprised of a square frame covered in a gorgeous wood veneer with a unique rather distressed finish almost like you can see faux saw marks in the grain. It has a single drawer and two front doors that feature an interesting, stacked pattern and brass plated escutcheons with a keyhole design. The tabletop is square with a Formica or laminate insert consisting of blended colors of dark brown with black low lights that gives an appearance of leather. It’s STUNNING!! It will be fabulous as an end table in your entry way below a gorgeous piece of art or between two wonderful lounge chairs in your sitting room hosting a table lamp. It would be great as a cabinet in your bedroom or as a chest in the study or home office.

Drexel Furniture Company was founded in 1903 in Drexel, North Carolina by six businessmen for a total investment of $14,000.00. Sam Huffman, one of the initial founders, managed the enterprise until his death in 1935 when his son, Robert O. Huffman took the helm. By 1950 under the younger Huffman’s leadership Drexel had grown from a small factory to a leader in furniture manufacturing. They acquired other furniture companies along the way and by the late 1950s employed 2300 workers. The 1960s had them adding industrial and hospitality furniture to their lines. In 1968 they were purchased, and Drexel Enterprises became Drexel Heritage Furnishings, Inc. They continued to add to their styles and lines and were sold again and then in 1986 became part of Masco Corporation one of the country’s largest furniture manufacturers. Drexel closed its doors in 2020.
