Industrial Heritage Inspired by the newspaper boom of the early 1800s, the Frederick design reflects a unique blend of American Revival styling and early industrial machinery. Its curved cast iron base references classic architectural forms, while the crank system draws from the mechanical innovation of the era. The design takes its name from the Frederick Post Company of Chicago, Illinois — a manufacturing leader known for drafting tables and industrial workbenches during this formative period in American industry. Designed in Knoxville, Tennessee and assembled in-house using a combination of sourced components and hand-finished craftsmanship to deliver lasting strength and historically inspired character.
