Pulaski Furniture and Leonard Eisen

Rabbit hole research time! I currently have some nice bedroom pieces and a desk that resemble a George Nelson look but clearly are not. I had a fellow dealer reach out to me who had pieces from the same line and one of his was marked Pulaski Furniture. I have started deep diving into them. Their most known mcm line is ‘Oceanic’ which is a beautifully carved walnut that often gets confused with Witco. As soon as he said Pulaski, my mind went to that line. I discovered the designer at the helm for Pulaski during this era was Leonard Eisen, I found a great interview with him on YouTube- watch below for history on his career, the company and how they positioned themselves to be a go to in the industry.

A piece from the Oceanic line is shown above, it’s an awesome line and great for tiki themed rooms.

The ad above refers to the line as ‘Contour 70s’. I have not located much on the other mid century modern lines as of yet, The search will continue!
