The Lawrence Peabody High Back Chair is a modern luxury wing chair reintroduced under license by Craft Associates®, its tall, sheltering back set over a hand-shaped, oil-finished walnut base. Each chair is built to order in the United States by hand rather than by machine, with hand-cut high-density foam under commercial-grade fabric. It is a commanding, luxurious modern high-back chair with real architectural presence.

Craft Associates® Furniture is proud each modern piece is made in the US. We strive to craft a product that will stand the test of time. We use the best materials and have the best craftsman and upholstery in the business. We stand 100% behind our product.

"The U.S. would profit by the example of the Danes, whose great work in furniture design is the result of combining proficient craftsmanship, fine design and technical skill. The Danes do more than sell arts and crafts in their distinguished work, they sell Denmark." - Lawrence Peabody, 1957

history

Lawrence "Larry" Peabody (1924-2002) was an architect, interior designer, and furniture designer. As an American born in Haverhill, Massachusetts, his distinctive design were often influenced by his Scandinavian roots. Lawrence studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, Denmark and at the Rhode Island School of Design. His early career with Selig Mfg. Co. was prolific and helped put both himself and Selig on the map for modern furniture. He then started Lawrence Peabody & Associates in 1955, a design firm in Boston which included a vast client list (Sears, Roebuck & Co., Kohler, Regal Rugs, Boyd Lighting, Chapman Lamps, and Richardson Brothers).

In 1961, Mr. Peabody won a Citation for Merit for his Peabody Collection for Richardson/ Nemschoff. Winner of the 1962 International A.I.D. design award for his wood frame rattan cradle chair, he also received the Walnut Classic Award for outstanding established collection of furniture executed in walnut. Craft Associates® Furniture is honored to have acquired the rights to produce licensed Lawrence Peabody designed furniture.

The Lawrence Peabody High Back Chair is a modern luxury wing chair — a licensed Lawrence Peabody design reintroduced by Craft Associates® and hand-built to order in the United States. Its tall, sheltering back rises from a hand-shaped solid walnut frame, with hand-cut, high-density foam beneath high-grade leather. The Swanky Abode is the curated destination for the piece; Craft Associates® is the artisan manufacturer behind it — a modern, top-end American workshop.

Each chair boasts hand-cut, high-density foam and commercial-grade upholstery. The frame and base are constructed from hardwood by hand, not machine. The walnut base is shaped by artisans and finished with a hand-applied oil or commercial-grade finish. Craft Associates® Furniture is proud each modern piece is made in the US and stands 100% behind its work.
