Bent Brothers was Gardner’s fourth oldest manufacturing company and an offshoot of Heywood-Wakefield Company. The company was founded in 1867 by Samuel, Charles O. and Roderic L. Bent Location. They first made five-spindle factory chairs for Heywood-Wakefield, and later made Colonial chairs and rockers. About 1870 they began making children’s chairs, rockers and stools. From the 1920s-1950s they made breakfast sets and institutional furniture. One specialty, by the 1960s, was the college and university chair. Bent Brothers, along with Nichols and Stone, were national leaders in this area. The Company closed in 2001. Currently the Colonial style chair and table sets sell for under $250.00.
