<SOLD> This is an iconic mid century modern gentleman’s chest from the Brasilia collection by Broyhill Furniture. From one of the most celebrated and highly collectible lines of mid century modern design, this unique highboy dresser features two doors that open to reveal four drawers on the right and two fixed shelves on the left.  Dramatic, sculpted walnut parabolas accent the front of both doors.  The lower section features two wide, spacious drawers accented with the symbolic brass pulls that define this line.  The Brasilia line was first presented at the world’s fair in Seattle in 1962.  This American classic took its styling from the architecture of the city of Brasilia, capital of Brazil.  The inspiration for Broyhill’s Brasilia line is the Palacio da Alvorada designed by famed architect Oscar Niemeyer in 1958.  This building featured sweeping parabolic shapes that would become the signature feature of Broyhill’s furniture line.  Well made, sturdy and highly functional, this magical piece measures 44″W X 19″D X 49″H.  Sold on 9/24/16 for $899
