"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 Catawba is a modern luxury lounge chair, hand-built by the artisans at Craft Associates® and offered here through The Swanky Abode, our curated destination for modern, top-end design. A low, wide seat rests on a sculptural hardwood base that is shaped and finished by hand — not machine — for a piece that feels grounded, resilient, and quietly luxurious.

Designed by Laura Trenchard to introduce the Catawba Collection, the chair takes its cue from Catawba Island and its dramatic Lake Erie shoreline — vivid winter whites against dark, rocky darks. That contrast lives in the deep graining of the wood and in the chair's confident, versatile stance.

Each Catawba modern lounge chair is made to order in the USA with hand-cut, high-density foam and commercial-grade upholstery. Available in walnut, maple, or oak, with additional exotic woods on request and a full COM fabric program.
