A Monumental Federal Carved Tiger Maple and Mahogany Chest, c.1820
This chest exhibits a beautiful scrolled backsplash with carving and original gallery retaining an original surface. The multi-faceted drawer configuration is a tour de force of bottle drawers, silverware drawers and original tambour; flanking all this are two reeded columns with carved motifs. The legs are turned in a Sheraton style. This is a unique piece and probably is New Hampshire; secondary wood is poplar. The tambour has its original canvas backing, which is easily repairable.
Height: 69 1/2 in.
Width: 50 1/2 in. Depth: 21 1/2 in.
