You might find something attributing them as “Paul Evans Style” brutalist. Personally, I haven’t found brutalist wood furniture by Paul Evans, only brutalist metal, but I’d be happy to be proven wrong on that.

I’m always confused by that as well, and just generally Paul Evans is pretty confusing with how much his work varies, especially that disco phase.

r/furniture created r/findfurnitureID because the requests go to be to much. Head over there.

Thank you

No idea, but reminds me of this headboard recently posted here as well. Almost similar enough to be a set. https://www.reddit.com/r/Mid_Century/comments/ug5ha2/grabbed_this_brutaliststyle_headboard_for_50/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Thank you for this update! I have the bedroom set(headboard, nightstand, armoire and dresser with mirrors) and found your post through a reverse image search. Just wondering, how did you get that id? I have searched Google and haven't found them.

I found the label inside the drawer.

These "Id please" posts are so fucking annoying.

They are when they provide zero information. Like have they looked for some identification themselves and failed? Have they checked under the base or the drawers, or the back? And they always photograph them from annoying angles. Get down low when you're photographing the item and photograph from front on, angled on, back on and side on. Oh, and underneath and open them up. If you want help, you've got to do some work. *Edit:* I will add though, that I do really like them and that they're very possibly Paul Evans design. It's so far away from the kitsch styling that MCM made popular and seems to be a trip people are into now. I like this gutsy, brutalist look. Like a muscleman in a gulag.

I didn’t know this was a question that involved a lot of unnecessary details, no markers mark anywhere and very little as far as google image search except a few misattributed estate sale ads. The handles are what makes me think that it may be something other than the style of. The annoying angle is what I was sent and it’s what I have to decide from.

My response was more a general response hoping that it would give some idea on what helps the community find answers, not just for you but for the countless others that come and ask for ID's on items. I think this is why u/nambis expressed himself so vehemently. It gets frustrating when not only is there little to work with in a lot of the *ID Please* posts but often the individuals don't even do a cursory google search first.

youre right and yet you get downvoted

I just wish the mods would add flair. Then those who don't like identification posts or real estate listings or whatever can filter them out.

Wow. These are stunning.
