A Sheraton Mahogany Reeded Leg Plant Stand, New England, c.1830

DEACCESSIONED

Plant stands are rare, and this is the first we have ever had, it is quite unusual, in that, instead of a single column supporting the stand with three small legs, as is true in, say the construction of a tilt-top table, this one has three well-developed reeded columns, which continue on to legs leaving a small lower platform for a vase. The workmanship is superb, as the turnings are vigorous, and the reeding extremely well-defined with a well-executed bulbous shaping to each column. This table retains its original surface and is in a good state of preservation.

As a plant stand it is fairly good sized, and is quite heavy, considering the amount of solid dense mahogany used throughout.

Height: 30 1/4 in. Diameter: 15 1/4 in.
