Join docents from the Gamble House in Pasadena as they explore the history, materials, design, and use of a chiffonier.
One of the most prized pieces of furniture that Greene & Greene designed for the Gamble House is a black walnut bedroom chiffonier. Join docents from the Gamble House to discover how the architects’ knowledge of woodworking and joinery are reflected in the design itself and explore the interplay between the ornamental and functional.
Informal talks will take place at 11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., and 1:30 p.m.
About the Organization
The Gamble House’s mission is to inspire the public’s appreciation and understanding of architecture as a fine art through the example of the Gamble House, the most complete and best-preserved work of American Arts and Crafts architects Charles and Henry Greene.
The exquisite designs of Arts and Crafts masters Charles Sumner Greene (1868–1957) and Henry Mather Greene (1870–1954) are on view in the Dorothy Collins Brown Wing of the Virginia Steele Scott Galleries of American Art.
