This is a high quality mid-century headboard with matching nightstands from the 'Contempora' collection by Mt. Airy Furniture in North Carolina. This piece was retailed by John Stuart, a high-end furniture importer who specialized in Danish and American designer pieces. (The 'Contempra' set is often attributed to the great Danish designer, Finn Juhl, but we believe it was simply influenced by his designs.)
The storage headboard features sliding doors and a comfortable slanted back for reading in bed. The attached nightstands have drop-down storage and are hinged to allow them to pivot inward, bringing the surface closer to the bed. In bleached walnut with fabulous solid brass pulls (please note: the pulls are currently being polished. In these photos they are tarnished.) These pieces are very heavy, as they are made primarily of walnut. There is a lot of solid walnut, and, according to the original tag, even the plywood beneath the veneered areas is made primarily of walnut!
In used vintage condition with finish wear and dings. Attaches to a typical metal bed frame.
A matching mirror and desk are available.
Headboard measures 54.25" wide x 10" deep x 36" high
Each nightstand measures 15" wide x 10" deep x 20"
Total width 84.5"
