A refined mid-century rattan dining set attributed to Ficks Reed, featuring four barrel-back dining armchairs and a round rattan dining table topped with glass. Executed in hand-bent rattan with sculptural X-lattice backs, this set exemplifies the architectural elegance that defined American Hollywood Regency interiors of the 1950s and early 1960s.
Each chair rests on original brass ball casters and retains its substantial proportions, offering both visual presence and comfort. The table base mirrors the chairs’ diagonal bracing, creating a cohesive and intentional design language throughout the set.
The rattan retains its original honey-gold lacquered finish with desirable age-related patina. Seat cushions are upholstered in deep green velvet and are removable.
An exceptional ensemble well suited for sophisticated interiors, Palm Beach Regency settings, or high-design sunrooms.
The rattan retains its original honey-gold lacquered finish with distinctive green-toned craquelure visible throughout the frames. This fine crackling developed naturally over time as the lacquer aged and cured, and is characteristic of mid-century rattan furniture finished with tinted lacquer. The effect is purely surface-level and does not affect the structural integrity of the set; rather, it contributes to the depth, warmth, and authenticity of the original finish and is highly valued by collectors.
