Is Kling Furniture Valuable?

Kling Furniture shows great quality, and beautiful solid wood construction. In fact, the Kling Company‘s most famous saying, “Kling Means Solid.” If you like solid wood furniture, Kling furniture is a great vintage furniture company to pursue.

With few exceptions, Kling also used dovetail joints in all of their drawers. Also, you typically see solid wood dust covers and thick wooden tops. In fact, most Kling dressers are very heavy because of this fact. Most people remove the drawers before moving a Kling dresser upstairs.

Also, because Kling used exclusively solid maple, solid cherry and solid mahogany wood, people can easily refinish Kling Furniture.

Vintage Kling Furniture for sale often shows refinished condition. If, a vintage Kling dresser is in refinished condition, you can expect to sell if for $400-$800.

By the same token, a vintage Kling nightstand can sell for between $150 and $350. Of course, you may need to refinish the Kling nightstand to receive the upper selling range.

A Kling maple dresser might not be as valuable as a cherry or mahogany one. Typically, cherry and mahogany dressers by Kling can sell for 10 percent more than their maple counterpoints. Honestly, this could simply be because maple furniture is slightly out of style.

Kling Furniture History

Today, not that many people have heard of Kling Company Furniture. However, most people know of the brand that purchased the Kling factories in the 1970s: Ethan Allen Furniture.

When Ethan Allen purchased Kling Furniture, the company started stamping some of their pieces “Kling Colonial.” Kling Colonial pieces mark the transition period when Ethan Allen Colonial Furniture purchased the company in the 1970s.

In fact, we have seen that Ethan Allen modified many of Kling’s designs in that period as well. Sometimes, Ethan Allen changed minor aspects of the furniture designs, like adding a few inches of depth to a nightstand. However, many Kling designs seem very similar to Ethan Allen furniture.
