Lincoln Furniture

Lincoln Furniture

I have a dresser and chest combination that my mother gave to me in Jan.2008. She said her and my dad bought it from an individual in Michigan back in the 1970's, along with a bed and 2 night stands.

The dresser is made by Lincoln Furniture. The emblem inside on of the drawers has a picture of President Abraham Lincoln with the name - Lincoln Furniture and the word "quality" above Lincoln's head.
There is also an old light that still works that is attached to the chest part of the dresser.
The knobs and hardware are made of brass.
There is not a date on the dresser and I would like to know if anyone has heard of Lincoln Furniture and how old it is.
I have looked on the internet and cannot find anything about Lincoln Furniture.

Made in America NEW

I also watched the special on tv. I love the fact he felt the need to bring the company back to America and create jobs. We (Americans) need to get back to manufacturing products with substance.

MADE IN USA NEW
by: Anonymous

Just saw Lincoln Furniture on the NBC Rock Center with Brian Williams show. It is awesome the Lincoln Furniture is being MADE IN THE USA! Manufacturing is the key to rebuilding the economy. We have to stop sending our money to foreign countries that do not care about the USA. Kudos to Lincoln Furniture!!

Good for Lincoln Furniture NEW
by: Anonymous

I watched the Shark Tank on TV the other night. The guy(sharks) said to a guy that wanted make his product in America to take his product off shore to produce. He would make more money. He refused and was not given a partner to invest in his product. We the people, not the goverment, have to choose our own destiney. If we stop buying products from oversees they will send it somewhere else.

Quality Lincoln Bedroom Suite NEW

I have a 6 piece bedroom suite with the same emblem (metal tag with Lincolns head) in the dresser and vanity drawers. I bought it from a lady in the 1970's. I have always been trying to find something out about the company that manufactured it and it's value. Any help would be appreciated!

Lincoln Furniture History NEW
by: Anonymous

The Lincoln Furniture Company was located at 20th and Lehigh sts in Philadelphia, pa. it is no longer there. This corner is famous in more than just having the furniture company there, it is also the corner of old Connie Mack stadium. Tastycake is also located near there. My grandfather worked there for years as a furniture maker, from the time he came to america (1913), until the 30's or
40's. Not really sure when the factory closed, changed hands, or when Grandpop retired. There were also 3 mend who came here with my grandfather who worked at the factory. Mastrianni, Santinella and Picardo. Hope this little bit helps!

MY DINING ROOM SET NEW
by: Anonymous

I have a dining room set that was my grandparents. I was getting my cloth napkins out of the drawer tonight for Thanksgiving and the tag mentioned previously came out of the back of the drawer. I would love some history on this company and the furniture.

I also have a small white desk/dressing table I bought at an antiques store with the same label. It looks to be in a style popular in 1900. It is very well made. I saw one similar at a Newport mansion tour!

Lincoln Chair Company NEW
by: Rhonda Bolner

The Lincoln Chair Company tag shows a bust of Lincoln, and under the bust it states, "Lincoln Chair Co. Columbus, Indiana". This is not the same as the tag you are discribing, and is not the same as Lincoln Furniture. Also........Lincoln Chair Company was NOT bought out by Orinoco Furniture Company. They were two companies owned by my great grandfather.

Try Orinoco Furniture. They bought out
a Lincoln Furniture Cc in the thirties. My mom

Good luck
