Featured Antique
Fine and Rare Sheraton Period
Four-Drawer Painted “Fancy” Chest

With projecting bamboo corner columns in front and rear of case. The original soft white paint on putty base is complimented with two-tone gold and auburn paint banding on cookie corner top and all three sides. Tiny flowers, possibly applied with a round cork stencil, grace the columns, enchanting this beautifully crafted chest with a folk art presence warm and pleasing as a crackling fireplace. Replaced pulls, minor imperfections to the untouched surface. American, possibly Boston, circa 1795.

2010 Antique Odyssey

Perhaps some distant race with their own Hubble Telescope is gazing now at a small blue planet in a Galaxy looking like a Milky Way. Gazing with wonderment.
