Berkshire No. 02 • Separate Acquisition
Substance, Storage & Provenance
The buffet brings a strong architectural presence with a carved and pierced backsplash crest, burl-veneered top drawers, applied scrollwork and medallion detail, fluted pilasters with turned split-baluster columns, a fan-carved apron, and bold turned bulb feet.
Original brass hardware was cleaned and reinstalled, with generous storage across four drawers and two cabinet doors. The top two drawers are lined in the same cream cut-scrollwork fabric used on the dining chairs.
Walkwood Furniture acquired this buffet together with the Rockford dining table, chairs, and leaves from one household in 2025. Surviving “A Line” paper labels identify Rockford Furniture Company; an exact single factory production run has not been confirmed. The buffet is now offered as a separate acquisition.
