Marshall B. Lloyd was world famous for his fine wicker baby buggies made in Menominee, Michigan. In 1917 he patented a revolutionary new process for the manufacture of wicker. Wicker fabric was woven from a twisted fiber made of kraft paper.

This woven wicker was the simple beginning of a brand new category of exceptional quality, innovative furniture that could be mass-produced. He called it Lloyd® Loom. Between 1920 and 1940, Mr. Lloyd produced many new, unique furniture designs – from large settees to small wastepaper baskets – that furnished residential homes as well as commercial properties.

Lloyd® Loom products have been enjoyed at Buckingham Palace, the U.S. Open, Wimbledon, on the London Northeast Railway and other notable places around the world.
