Classical Cherry and Bird's Eye Maple Workstand, New England, c.1840

This two-drawer worktable, with side leaves is embellished with bird’s eye maple around a convex upper drawer and flat lower drawer. The base is vigorously turned in a stylized manner, as are the scroll feet, which are diminutive in scroll, yet successful in the uplifting that is achieved. This provincial form is one of the best of its type.
