Key Details
Maker: Lane Furniture, Altavista VA
Date Stamped: 08 / 10 / 78 (serial 8770181, inverted Lane date code)
Style: Mid‑Century Brutalist / Paul Evans style
Woods: Sculpted black‑walnut blocks and veneer; solid red‑oak drawer boxes & interior framing
Configuration:
Dresser (lowboy): 30 H × 72 W × 18 D in.
Detachable mirror: 36 H × 48 W × 2 D in. (beveled glass, original mounting brackets included)
Drawers: Nine, all with dovetail joinery, original glides, and smooth action
Finish: Warm walnut tone, professionally cleaned and waxed; retains original sheen
Condition
Very good vintage (46 years old). Minor edge rubs and faint surface marks consistent with age—no chips, deep scratches, or veneer losses.
Mirror glass is crystal‑clear; walnut frame shows only light wear at the lower corners.
Structurally sound; drawers sit square and glide freely.
(See photos for close‑ups; additional images on request.)
Why We Love It
Lane’s Brutalist series offered the drama of Paul Evans’ one‑of‑a‑kind studio pieces in a production line—making this set the perfect entry point for collectors who crave that sculptural, block‑front look without the five‑figure price tag. The lowboy’s 72‑inch span anchors a room, while the detachable mirror lets you style it as a classic dresser or a chic buffet.
