Attributed to Thomas C. Molesworth (1890-1977) Jack Rabbit Smoking Stand, Wyoming, c. 1950, wrought iron, ht. 36, wd. 9, dp. 12 in. Note: Molesworth was an American furniture designer who was a significant figure in the creation of a distinctly Western style of furniture and accessories, using hides, horn and natural wood. Molesworth's style drew from the Arts and Crafts Movement and from vernacular design characteristics of western American ranches and farms. He is credited with popularizing the "cowboy furniture" style. To produce his designs, Molesworth operated the Shoshone Furniture Company from 1931 to 1961 in Cody, Wyoming.
