CHIPPENDALE OXBOW, GRADUATED FOUR-DRAWER CHEST

Offered by: Jeffrey Tillou Antiques

Description
This chest has wonderful form in a desirable, compact size and exhibits some great features. The generous overhang of the molded top makes the lower case seem smaller, creating the chest’s striking proportions. The reverse serpentine drawer faces and case are supported by ogee bracket feet. And the center pendant has a carved fan flanked by spurs, a small embellishment proves to be a real focal point.
