Chest-Mahogany, Pine & Maple
c. 1937
Back in 1937, designer Eva Wilson sketched this sturdy chest of drawers, carefully detailing how mahogany, pine, and maple would come together. You can see the elegant turned legs and the whimsical, curved top rail that gives the piece so much character. Interestingly, a small, bright yellow flower blooms at the bottom of the page—perhaps a signature motif or just a playful doodle to brighten up the technical drawing. It’s a delightful peek into the meticulous planning behind mid-century furniture design.
