Genova Furniture Company was a 20th-century American furniture manufacturer and retailer based in Brooklyn, New York, active particularly in the 1950s–1960s. The company produced a range of case pieces — including dressers, chests, nightstands, and bedroom sets — characterized by solid wood construction and stylistic elements associated with American interpretations of mid-century modern design. Pieces attributed to Genova often feature sculptural wood detailing, minimalist proportions, and walnut finishes typical of the period. Examples of their furniture appear on vintage markets and auction listings, and many surviving pieces carry original Brooklyn, NY provenance from the mid-20th century. See less
