Milo Baughman Burlwood Case Loveseat for Thayer Coggin – Metal Base, 1970s
This floating case loveseat, attributed to Milo Baughman for Thayer Coggin, circa 1970s, exemplifies the designer’s masterful blend of modern geometry and luxe materiality. The sharp, rectangular frame is clad in highly figured bookmatched burlwood veneer, enveloping the upholstered interior like a minimalist sculpture.
Set atop a recessed steel base, the piece achieves a striking levitating effect—one of Baughman’s most recognizable design signatures. The loveseat includes removable cushions recently reupholstered in a rich blue patterned textile. While unmarked, this model directly corresponds with verified examples sold through Dallas Moderne and other fine auction houses, confirming its alignment with Baughman’s floating case series.
Condition
In excellent vintage condition. The burlwood veneer is vibrant and well-matched with minimal wear. Upholstery has been professionally redone and appears like new. The brass base shows light patina and faint scuffing, appropriate for age. Please refer to photos for detailed views.
