 Fine 17th, 18th, and 19th Century Antiques                              

 

    



   Above, an English mahogany cellarette, early 19th century, with Sheraton turned legs has nice old color. The key is still present. Ht. 23", w. 20", d. 11 1/2". $495.
    In the side panel are three 19th century Chinese decorated baluster form snuff jars. One is marked on the underside. The three, as a group, $195.
    Below, an unusual mahogany bowfront two part etagere' can be a lovely period display piece. Crisp, slender turnings support bowfront shelves below a bonnet top. The bonnet has a top shelf for a dramatic display. H.84", w. 33', d.11 3/4".  Circa 1820s. Temptation at $800. Do not hestitate to call promptly.


 


    Seldom can we fill requests for eight period dining chairs. Here is a set which includes two armchairs. The set is old and well made but not in period. They have molded heart backs with carved details and line inlaid legs. The seats are worn patterned black horsehair. I just got these in this afternoon and they will need some regluing and a polish while at the upholster's but they promise you a well made large set when done. Just out of a collector's storage, $1800 the set of eight as they are shown here.  H. 39", w. side chair, 20 3/4", armchair, 21 3/4".
