What is Brutalism? Born in the early 1970’s Its hard edges, jagged shapes, rough surfaces, built up finishes, and symmetrical organic designs of wood metal and or resins. Brutalism was bold and distanced its self from the early days of streamlined blond modern furniture and Danish modern furniture. Early designers were Paul Evans, Adrian Pearsall, and the Lane furniture company. The pieces are strong, dynamic and edgy. Brutalism turns heads and is highly collectable. The Brutalist nightstand / end table that we are offering was manufactured by Burlington House Furniture in Lexington Kentucky in the mid-1970’s. The detailing on the front of the piece is made in resin and shaped to emulate wood blocks. As you can see from the photos the finish underneath the uniquely shaped brass plated pulls is a style of burl walnut laminate. The finish on the top, front and sides are a walnut with a light touch of black flecks. This particular nightstand / end table is in great vintage condition and has only light wear on the top. The previous owner(s) took care of this handsome piece.
Measurements of the Brutalist nightstand / end table:
