Fancy Sheraton at its Best, Original Paint

Federal Period Dressing Table, New England, Likely Portsmouth, New Hampshire, or Maine, Image 1

This over-the-top dressing table displays nuances and visual energy executed by an inspired visionary; a powerful fancy statement. The mirror is raised on a pair of turned columns above a glovebox containing a single short drawer and resting on ball feet. The dramatic case having a double-scrolled backsplash conforms to glovebox. The cases feature oxbow fronts and half-serpentine sides; lower case with ovolo corners over canted corners on which are the turned and engaged split columns continuing to robust turned tapering bamboo legs resting on spike feet.
