Rare 2 tier carved coffee Table made from two sculpted birch boards suspended with X frames along either side. The table was made by the renowned Heywood Wakefield furniture company and is an excellent example of American Mi-century furniture. Heywood Brothers was established in 1826; Wakefield Company was founded in 1855. Both produced primarily rattan and wicker pieces. By the late 19th century, as rattan and wicker furniture became increasingly popular, the two companies became major rivals, then merged in 1897 as Heywood Brothers & Wakefield Company. They acquired other furniture manufacturers, including Washburn-Heywood Chair Company in 1916, Oregon Chair Company in 1920, and Lloyd Manufacturing Company in 1921. Also in 1921, the company name was shortened to Heywood-Wakefield Company; its 1930s designs were inspired by the Art Deco movement and included high-quality hand-crafted solid wood furniture also popular during the mid-century modern era.
