Each features a clean rectangular top supported by remarkably slender, gently tapered round legs and a shallow apron. When nested, the three tables form a compact architectural composition; separated, they provide three versatile occasional tables of progressively smaller dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe largest table measures approximately \u003cstrong\u003e26\" L × 20\" W × 24\" H\u003c\/strong\u003e. These dimensions and the construction closely correspond with documented examples of Russel Wright nesting tables produced by Conant Ball and associated with his \u003cstrong\u003eAmerican Modern\u003c\/strong\u003e furniture designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe maple displays attractive natural grain and figuring throughout, enhanced by a mellow honey-to-amber patina developed with age. The simplicity of the design allows the character of the wood and the exceptionally graceful proportions of the legs to take center stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set remains in \u003cstrong\u003egood vintage condition\u003c\/strong\u003e, retaining an appealing period surface. As expected for furniture of this age, the tables show scattered scratches, finish variation, discoloration, small marks and edge wear. These have intentionally not been aggressively refinished, preserving the character and authenticity of the surfaces. Please refer closely to the photographs for condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn elegant example of early American modernist furniture, these tables work equally well in a Mid-Century Modern interior or as a warm modernist counterpoint in a traditional or contemporary room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attributed to Russel Wright (1904–1976)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attributed to Conant Ball, Massachusetts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e American Modern, attributed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circa 1940s–1950s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maple hardwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three graduated nesting tables\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLargest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 26\" L × 20\" W × 24\" H\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear and patina\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"3rdfinds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48984527044863,"sku":"0743","price":1450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/0658\/7135\/files\/a_13b58126-f384-427b-a8f3-3c6fe21ffca4.jpg?v=1786329746","url":"https:\/\/3rdfinds.com\/products\/set-of-three-russel-wright-for-conant-ball-american-modern-maple-nesting-tables-c-1940s-1950s","provider":"3rdfinds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
