History of our Furniture:

Our Lamps Are One Of A Kind.  If You Are looking for that unique look that you just can't quite find, we just might have the pieces you are looking for.

Our Timeless Pieces date back to the early 1940 to the late 1960.

Mid-Century America

A generation full of vigor and vim. A generation both simple and dignified, generous and strong. Their world was made of steel—the cars they drove, the buildings they erected, the desks where they sat—solid and unchanging. Steel was a semblance of their life and their time; the way they worked, the way they played, their integrity, their optimism.

Our Furniture is are not just a  vision of that time, they are from that time, and an unimpaired concept for the way you work today.  Superb design captures the essence of function, and thus its form becomes timeless. The classic lines and thick gauge construction of this furniture
has remained unchanged for more than fifty years. A functional blend of surfaces and storage, our furniture can be combined to outfit any office, home work area,
or retail space.

Each piece is completely stripped down of its old dreadful paint to reveal the underlying beauty the natural steel finish offers.  Each piece is hand sanded over and over until you can comb your hair in its mirror-like finish.  All Pieces are then clear-coated with 5 coats to ensure maximum protection.

Dazor's history started in 1938 when Harry Dazey teamed up with Washington University professor Albert Perbal, to create a company that would manufacture lamps. Harry Dazey began his career by producing butter churns, but when
Mr. Dazey came up with the idea for the floating arm portable light he decided to restructure his company into a lamp manufacturer that specialized in task lights. 

Initially, Dazor lights were used simply as table lamps and the company grew to employ a dozen people. It was
not until the eruption of World War II that Dazor lamps became famous for their high efficiency and lower costs.
The government found that Dazor's lamps helped to conserve energy and were cheaper than the traditional
costly overhead lighting. They were so impressed that they replaced the overhead lighting with the more energy efficient Dazor lamps and the company grew very rapidly.  Dazor was also the first fluorescent lamp manufacturer to combine the technology of the portable task light with fluorescent light bulbs. The technology was highlighted in a display by General Electric at the 1938 World's Fair. The lamp became popular quickly, especially among draftsman and architects of the time who found that the lights offered better visibility than traditional incandescent lights.

Today, Dazor lights are used in many industries where good lighting is essential to quality performance.  Jewelers, electronic manufacturers, medical and dental professionals, artists and craftsmen all use Dazor lamps. High quality components, engineered design, and a vast attention to detail keep Dazor positioned as one of the premier lamp manufacturers in the world.
