Calif-Asia was founded in the 1920’s by Bessie Abbott Ochs as a prominent importer and manufacturer of bentwood and rattan furniture based out of Los Angeles, California. During the 1940’s through the 1960’s Calif-Asia capitalized on the booming demand for casual and rather bohemian style home aesthetics. Their pieces stood out due to their distinct bent cane and rattan configurations, iron frames, and use of wicker and cane. They collaborated with the era’s most legendary designers including Paul McCobb, Milo Baughman, and Danny Ho Fung. Calif-Asia gained massive popularity in the 50’s and 60’s and rivaled with other luxury makers such as McGuire and Ficks Reed as production methods evolved overseas before scaling back in the late 20th Century. The company closed its doors in 1969; however, they are a staple for collectors in vintage furnishings and their iconic pieces are highly sought after today.
