This piece was
actually made to be a bathroom vanity using a vessel style
sink. It has a false drawer on top and a half sized
second drawer with a full lower drawer. It could just as
well have been made into a chest of drawers, lengthened or
widened to suit. This shows another traditional look
with cock beaded drawer fronts, period brass bail pulls and
bracket feet. This piece sells for $1,400 as shown.

Small hall table
or sideboard shown here in curly maple with hand turned period
legs and dovetailed drawers. Measures approximately
36"x15"x30" and could be modified and enlarged
in a wide variety of ways in keeping with this very
traditional look. This piece sells for $1,100 (an
antique of similar design and in good condition can easily be
priced at $5,000 retail).

Shown with the
top both open and closed, this curly maple secretary desk is
made in the same manner of an 18th century
original. It features some 168 hand cut dovetails,
period chased brasses, ogee bracket feet and a hand applied
finish. The gallery is a close copy of a 1760 secretary
I saw in a local museum. This piece captures the look
and has the presence of work built in an earlier time. It
measures 40-1/2" H x 37"W x 21"D and is for
sale at $6,500.

A curly maple
two-piece step back hutch, with frame and panel sides, period
bracket feet, raised panel doors, hand dovetailed lipped
drawer, divided light doors and a milk painted beaded back,
all exactly as the customer requested. I present this as
an example of how a common piece can be customized to suit the
customer’s specific taste and space requirements. This piece
sells for $3,700 as shown. |
