Olympic Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90022 Open by appointment but very flexible Instagram: vintage_supply This early 1920s bombe highboy showcases the refined elegance of American Edwardian Colonial Revival design, crafted in the United States and constructed from richly figured tiger oak. Its shapely silhouette features a curved front, cabriole legs, and a carved apron, balanced by practical American sensibilities such as sturdy drawers and a hidden upper storage cabinet behind a discreetly recessed panel. Brass handles and classic swing pulls add subtle ornamentation without overwhelming the natural beauty of the oak grain. The proportions feel luxurious yet approachable, making it suitable for everyday use in bedrooms, dressing spaces, or refined entryways. Presented in original vintage condition, the piece remains sturdy, functional, and full of old-world charm. Fun Historical Fact: During the Edwardian era in America, cabinetmakers frequently revived Colonial-era forms but softened them with European curves, especially French Louis XV influences, resulting in elegant hybrids like this bombe highboy. Tiger oak was particularly prized for upscale furniture at the time, as its dramatic flake grain symbolized wealth and domestic refinement. Pieces like this were often purchased for “marriage homes,” intended to be heirlooms passed from one generation to the next.
