A Sheraton/Federal Mahogany Canterbury, American or English, c.1800-1810
This canterbury is all complete and finely crafted of dense mahogany, which retains an early dark surface. The casters are original and the dividers are finely stylized with a tombstone arch motif cut out of each splat and reflected above in the shaped rail. It’s a fine period piece in excellent condition.
For a comparative example that lacks this tombstone development, see attached example in black and white below.
Height: 21 1/2 in. Width: 17 1/4 in. Depth: 12 in.
