Accurate Description of Item
One Mid Century French Provincial style Bedroom Suite by Dixon- Powdermaker, from The Orleans Collection.
Appraiser Remarks
Dixon Powdermaker began operations as a corporation in 1946 and as far as I'm aware went out of business sometime in the 1970's. They were best known for their French Provincial furniture in solid hardwoods.
The French Provincial style has gone through a number of revivals since its original inception in the mid 1700's, it seems to go through periods of popularity about every 30 years or so. Currently the style is not in vogue and values for pieces in this style remain modest , at auction whole suites comparable to yours often sell for under $1000.00
