A Fine Queen Anne Mahogany Dressing Table, Wethersfield, Connecticut
Rare in mahogany…almost always cherry…
Date/Period: Circa 1760


A Fine Queen Anne Mahogany Dressing Table, Wethersfield, Connecticut Rare in mahogany…almost always cherry…, entire view 1

Measurement: Case width 31.5; Case Depth: 20 ⅝”; Height 30.5”; Top 33 x 21.75.

Material: Mahogany with white pine secondary woods

Condition: Fine original condition, with a pleasing color and surface. There are old
repairs to the rear legs where they join the case. The hardware is period but replaced.

Additional Information: With its elegant design, fine craftsmanship and graceful
proportions, this dressing table reflects the perfection attained by cabinetmakers
working in the Wethersfield style. This example displaying successful form and pleasing
proportions was constructed of mahogany for a premium client. Examples from the
Wethersfield region share delicate, well-formed cabriole legs with pad feet on supports,
cyma curved aprons and side skirts, also shell carved center drawers above a concave
recess in the apron. The two-board top and absence of a rail above the top-drawer are
Wethersfield shop traditions. A very similar dressing table and highboy are illustrated
and discussed in Connecticut Valley Furniture by Kugleman, Kugleman and Lionetti, pp.
54, 55, 56.

The dressing table retains mellow old color and surface [possibly original]. The
overhanging molded two-board top is another Wethersfield trait. The case contains a
single long drawer above three short drawers. The center drawer is larger and is carved
with a concave fan featuring eight lobes above a conforming recess in the skirt centered
by well-developed cyma curves that flow neatly and gracefully into the cabriole legs.
The side skirts repeat this pattern with a pair of lobes. The elegant legs are superbly
formed with graceful curves continuing to delicate ankles resting on tidy pad feet raised
on disks. The dressing table displays an uncluttered form that is sophisticated and
pleasing.

Important and Rare Dressing Table, Original Red Painted Surface
Portsmouth, New Hampshire Area
Date/Period: Circa 1790


Important and Rare Toilet Table, Original Red Painted Surface Portsmouth, New Hampshire Area, entire view 1

Measurement: Height: 29”; Width: 36”; Depth: 20.75”

Material: Northeastern white pine

Condition: Excellent, original throughout

Additional Information: Toilet tables, cloth covered dressing tables were designed to
be draped in silk, satins, velvet, or tissue. They were made of simple form and soft
woods. The major element in the design of these tables is the highly exaggerated
ogee-curved top. By the Federal period, every woman mindful of her social standing
had a toilet table in her bed chamber.

The top with flowing cyma reversa front and cyma recta sides features a most
generous overhang and is raised on delicate square Chippendale legs having outside
beaded edges and chamfered inner edges. The legs are mortised to receive the apron
tenon. This table retains its original red paint and displays a dry surface.
