The Haverty Furniture Co have been in business since 1885 and for a time this was their store at 60 Haywood st, Asheville, NC. It was built around 1928 and designed by WH Lord. Pink terra cotta is used as decoration on the otherwise plain brick building. At the apex of the gabled front, a panel depicts a turkey, stylised floral forms, squirrels and roosters.
Elsewhere, panels show mythical dragon-like beasts, an eagle with a captured fish in its talons and just above street level a pair of panels with a winged horse and a dog.
