Connecticut Spring Antiques Show 2017
Hard Pine Eighteenth Century Chest - Price Upon Request
A rare survivor from the first quarter of the Eighteenth Century, with deep sheath or shadow moldings on both front and sides and with notched front corners. Made of hard pine and retaining its original dry red paint. The top shows evidence of several sets of hinges, the cleats are missing and there is some loss to the rear feet. Despite these losses, the chest has a great feel and sense of age. Probably South Shore, Massachusetts, circa 1710–15. It measures: 46½ inches case length, 49¾-inch top and 23½ inches tall.
