Paul McCobb


I just bought this vintage walnut secretary for my Dallas job from reGENERATION via 1stdibs. It is by Paul McCobb...
who never received any formal design training.

Sounds like somebody else I know.

    That is a stunning piece of furniture.

    Regarding his (and your's I'm supposing?) lack of formal training...you just can't teach good taste.

    I'm guessing that you are speaking of Dorothy Draper and Sister Parish?
    Love your work, keep it going!
