John Thomas Dillingham was born in 1833 in West Falmouth, Massachusetts. He studied at Friends College at Providence, Rhode Island and became involved in the mercantile life as his father owned a store. In 1856 he went into Legislature where he served one term in Massachusetts. Dillingham Manufacturing Company began under the title Swift, Dillingham, & Co. in 1857 as a sawmill business which included Joseph Swift (Dillingham’s Father-in-Law,) his brother-in-law, E. Slade, and himself, J.T. Dillingham. In 1866 that partnership was dissolved, and Dillingham acquired the manufacturing department. After his death in 1889, Dillingham Manufacturing Company was incorporated, and Edwin Slade was President. Throughout its history, Dillingham Furniture Co. became one of the leading furniture manufacturers in the United States and collaborated with renowned designers and artists, further enhancing its reputation in the industry. Notable designers who worked with the company included Milo Baughman, Merton Gershun, and Kipp Stewart. They closed their doors permanently in 1988 but the company’s contribution to the American furniture industry remains significant and many pieces are sought after today.
High-quality manufacturer, versatility, and a striking style that you can only find in a vintage Dillingham piece. This marvelous vintage mirror is just too exquisite to let go. You simply MUST have it… so, just do it… make it YOURS!!!
