In 1968, Drexel merged with Heritage Furniture to become Drexel Heritage. This merger brought together two strong legacies of American furniture making, allowing the brand to offer a diverse range of styles, from traditional to contemporary. Drexel Heritage pieces are highly regarded for their attention to detail, use of quality materials, and timeless design, making them sought-after collectibles today. less
