Universal Furniture Chippendale Style Dining Set

Item Details

This comprehensive dining suite by Universal Furniture Industries, Inc. consists of a double pedestal table and a set of eight chairs, including two armchairs. The table features a classic ‘D-end’ silhouette with a reeded edge and crossbanded mahogany-style veneers, supported by two substantial turned pedestals terminating in tripod legs with brass-capped feet. The chairs are executed in the Chippendale Revival style, featuring intricate pierced back splats with central scroll motifs and shell-carved crest rails. Each chair is fitted with a padded seat upholstered in a cream and white striped textile. While emulating the 18th-century ‘line of beauty,’ the construction utilizes modern industrial techniques, including corner blocks and polyurethane foam, identifying it as a high-quality residential set from the late 20th century.
