“What a cool little cupboard.” This delightfully, petite cupboard made out of yellow pine. Originally built during the second half of the 19th century, this piece was built for rugged use and has survived in amazingly good condition. It has 2 doors and two interior shelves. It is only 43 ¼” tall, 32 ½” wide, and 17 ¾” deep. While the hinges are 20th century replacements, the piece remains in relatively untouched condition. Overall, it really is a sweet piece. Attributed to Virginia.
Price: $795

“Impressive!” may be the first word that comes to mind when one sees this clock for the first time. Made out of beautiful mahogany, the clock has a glow and warmth that draws one in. Starting from the top, the bonnet is incredible. The plinths are inlaid in broad stripes that continue below the molded broken arch. The center plinth curves down into the molding above the door and ends in a fine point. The rosettes at the top of the broken arch are inlaid stars. On either side of the face are two columns which are fluted. The columns feature stop fluting that is inlaid to match the work stemming from the plinths. The visual effect of the bonnet is amazing. In addition, the face is sweet and features flowers.
