Creator: George Nelson -Herman Miller

Description
This gorgeous dresser is part of George Nelson's 1950s Thin Edge collection for Herman Miller, which takes its name from the elegant, slim profile. Tapered trestle legs elevate the walnut case, with five graduated drawers, the topmost of which is divided, and two adjustable shelves behind a door on the right. All feature Nelson's classic aluminum pulls.

The metal Herman Miller label is inside. The aluminum pegs for the shelves can be seen in the photo of the divided top drawer.

We also have a corresponding five-drawer Thin Edge dresser.
