Taliesin Ensemble Full Headboard
Description
This is a full-sized headboard from the Taliesin Ensemble line, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for Heritage-Henredon in 1955.
The piece features a facade of Honduran mahogany, and has Lloyd Wright's signature dentil carving along the edges. The line was only in production for two years from 1955 to early 1957, rendering its pieces rather scarce. Interestingly, Heritage-Henredon did not effectively market the line when initially released, which translated into disappointing sales figures. As a result, Wright did not continue his contract with the company in 1956. Nowadays, Lloyd Wright has a cult-like following, and the pieces from this very limited collection are coveted by collectors.
This headboard measures 1 inch deep, 38.5 inches high, and 54 inches wide. The piece has scuffs and scratches where the headboard connects to a standard metal bed frame (not included in this sale). There are also some light surface blemishes on the headboard. Overall, the piece is in good condition. Please see photos.

What should I expect when ordering an item with lead time?
Estimated lead times are shown under "Delivery", above. Read our shipping policy to learn more.
Lead times are estimated based on previous production times from our manufacturing partners, but lead times can change depending on availability and circumstances outside of Rarify's control.
For example: if purchasing an imported or made-to-order product, international shipping and import times depend on many factors. This includes US customs operations, global trade circumstances, and production facilities in other countries.
We will try to fulfill your order as quickly as possible. Our international freight forwarding partners help to take burden off of you during the process of importing; we appreciate your patience while your order is fulfilled.
Purchasing made-to-order is one of the most responsible ways to purchase, as it helps prevent furniture waste on our planet.
Vintage items are typically in-stock in the USA and ready to ship once purchased.
How much does shipping cost?
To see shipping costs, add an item to your cart and proceed to checkout. You'll be able to see costs there.
- Small items like lamps typically cost under $99 to ship.
- Larger items including furniture often ship on a truck via Freight. Our furniture shippers professionally arrange and manage all Freight shipments.
- Freight costs often range between $100 and $999 for furniture.
- Very large and fragile items can cost more, depending on the ship-to-address.
- Freight costs may include insurance.
Do you deliver to NYC?
Yes, in-stock items can often be delivered to NYC quickly by our skilled couriers. Pieces are delivered by hand to your residence. This typically takes 1-2 weeks for items stocked at our warehouse in PA.
What is Freight shipping?
Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.
Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.
Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.
