We are pleased to be offering today what I believe to be a bench made custom solid tiger sawn oak Chippendale raised panel all the way around cabriole ... moreleg flat top desk that dates from the 1890's. The desk comes with four raised panel dove tail drawers that retain all the original hardware. The center where the legs go have a reverse cove carving, which I have never seen in oak. It has a scallop bottom trim base, raised panels all the way around and a wide bevel edge on the solid tiger sawn oak top. The only negatives I see on the desk is that there is a little wear on the edge of the top from rubbing against something and there is a split going down the center of the top. We most likely could pull the top off and repair the top, which wouldn’t make a huge difference, but it is an expensive repair. The desk itself is high end quality.

I am the 2nd owner of this nice vintage dining room set-I bought it from the estate of a lady that purchased it new in 1929. Original tags still attached-reads-made ... moreby Bernhardt Furniture Co. Lenoir, North Carolina-the underside of the table is also stamped: Oval Table-Cherry-29-etc. Made of Cherry wood-medium, chestnut brown stain allows for much of the grain in the wood to show. Set consisted of table with removable center piece-5 regular chairs and one captain's chair with arms-hutch and buffet. I bought these 20 years ago and now am getting different furniture. I had the seats professionally reupholstered long ago to match my decor(olive green/goldish print)I have always kept seat pads on the chairs when in use-so the seats are in great condition. Table measures 58" x 40" x 30 1/2" tall-with an additional center piece that measures 12" wide. The Hutch is 47" x 15" x 70" tall. The Buffet is 57" x 17 1/2" x 30 1/3" tall. Overall very nice condition-normal wear for being 84 years old. Some things I would mention are that the wood color of the center piece section is darker than the rest of the table, it was like that when I bought it-possible meant for contrast or maybe because it was stored out of the light)also a slice of the corner wood has broken off as can be seen the the picture-back rt corner of section. Also-a bit of wood had chipped off the top corner of the table leg(tiny but I mention it to be exact-not seen from the top) The legs screw off with attachment bolts to remove them for storage. Also, one chair missing a decorative wood curve on front leg-shown in pic. Also- scratch on table top-6" and 1 1/2"shown in last pic. If I missed something-please ask. The color of the hutch in the first pic is the true color-rich and beautiful. As you can see-the hutch and buffet hold a ton of things(none of which are included in this sale) Pick-up only in Traverse City Michigan. If buyer wants to arrange their own shipping that would be fine) NOTE-I w

Fine Antique 18th Century American Chippendale Mahogany Slant Front Desk c.1770
Please note. We have a very large collection of additional images of this piece available for your enjoyment below. Description: This listing is for a Chippendale Period Slant Front Desk circa 1770-80. Salem Massachusetts, in the manner of John Chipman(b. 1746-1819) It features solid Cuban Mahogany case, each side crafted of a single solid plank, through-dovetailed at the top and dovetailed at the bottom. The slant front lid features an original keyhole escutcheon over what appears to be the original brass lock, falling onto arms that slide out with brass knobs- one original, the left one replaced. The open writing surface is clean, with what appear to be two original brass hinges, though curious patching is noted below flaking each hinge. Above the writing surface is a collection of nine small drawers, the centermost shell carved, each with ... morebrass knobs, below which a gallery of six pigeon holes rest in perfect symmetry. The case has four graduated drawers. Each of which feature period bail pull brass hardware flanking a replaced lock with original brass keyhole escutcheon. The drawers are hand dovetailed front and back, the front dovetails hidden behind applied cockbead molding. The drawers are yellow pine secondaries, the bottom being deeply chamfered along the perimeter to rabbet into the frame. They slide easily in and out of the case over replaced drawer runners, the drawer dividers running into the sides behind a mahogany facade, effectively hiding what are probably dovetail joints. The back of the case has all original backboards, though many nails are replaced. The molded apron features a carved shell drop down medallion in the center that mirrors the design of the middle drawer. The case rests over scroll cut bracket feet, each with an incredible flowing design in the manner of John Chipman. We do not believe the desk was executed in the shop of John Chipman.

English George III Chippendale Antique Secretary Bookcase Desk 18th Century 1780
English George III Chippendale Bookcase Secretary Desk Late 18th Century with Modern Alterations. C. 1780-1800 Item# 130001KSH27 This is a very attractive English George III Chippendale Antique Secretary Desk. Originally crafted during the last quarter of the 18th Century and altered during the first quarter of the 20th Century. It was probably a more plain version of the rather fine piece we see today. Altered to suit the appetite for high-style pieces during the first quarter of the 20th Century. Crafted of mahogany veneers with pine and oak secondaries, the case features two over three graduated drawers with replaced brasses over bold oversized bracket feet. The slant front drops over original hinges to rest on extending lopers, revealing a large mahogany writing surface with six document drawers over two long-thin drawers flanked on either ... moreside by an inverted graduated stack of drawers- this is a rather unusual feature, the graduation going from largest on the top to smallest on the bottom. It is crafted in two parts, the upper bookcase with adjustable shelves and glazed glass doors under a projecting crown and dentil molding. A visually interesting and desirable piece. Though not suited for collector tastes due to the alterations, this is a wonderful period secretary desk with a deep patination throughout giving it fine character. It is a striking piece that will drastically improve the overall presentation of any formal setting- offered at a fraction of the price a pure piece would bring on the open market. This is a fine acquisition for interior decorators or those looking for authentic appeal in an affordable antique secretary desk. Measurements: 39" wide(at feet) x 24" deep(closed) 36 1/4" deep(opened) Writing surface measures 22 3/4" deep x 35 1/2" wide with 32" from the ground to the top of the writing surface Base is 41 3/8" high to top of molding Bookcase is 38 3/8" high and 11 3/4" deep Total height of the case is 79 1/4" Condition Report: With moder

American Chippendale Slant Front Desk, Boston or Salem Massachusetts c. 1770-90
American Chippendale Slant Front Desk over Scroll Cut Bracket Feet Salem or Boston. Massachusetts c. 1770-90 Item# 120201PUP05 Presenting some of the best of the American Chippendale Period. This fine slant front desk is crafted of solid Cuban Mahogany, each side crafted of a single solid plank, through-dovetailed at the top and dovetailed at the bottom. The slant front lid features an original keyhole escutcheon over what appears to be the original brass lock, falling onto arms that slide out with brass knobs- one original, the left one replaced. The open writing surface is clean, with what appear to be two original brass hinges, though curious patching is noted below flanking each hinge. Above the writing surface is a collection of nine small drawers. The centermost shell carved, each with brass knobs, below which a gallery of six pigeon ... moreholes rest in perfect symmetry. The case has four graduated drawers, each of which feature period bail pull brass hardware flanking a replaced lock with original brass keyhole escutcheon. The drawers are hand dovetailed front and back, the front dovetails hidden behind applied cockbead molding. The drawers are yellow pine secondaries, the bottom being deeply chamfered along the perimeter to rabbet into the frame. They slide easily in and out of the case over replaced drawer runners, the drawer dividers running into the sides behind a mahogany facade, effectively hiding what are probably dovetail joints. The back of the case has all original backboards. Though many nails are replaced. The molded apron features a carved shell drop down medallion in the center that mirrors the design of the middle drawer. The case rests over scroll cut bracket feet, each with an incredible flowing design in the manner of John Chipman(b. 1746-1819) We do not believe the desk was executed in the shop of John Chipman. As his cases will typically feature exposed dovetail drawer dividers in the Newport manner, and the pidgeon-hole gallery will regularly feature more intense scalloping- however,

Original Antique 1753 Chippendale Engraving Plans & Specs Desk & Bookcase LXXVII
Description As described in the title and shown on the 10 photos and 2 scans(most accurate as to color and texture) This is an original engraving from a rather large volume that Thomas Chippendale published in 1754. We have no idea how many editions or printings were created from these rather well known plates. It was last matted and framed in the 1970's but the frame was damaged and we tossed it. We tested the mat and back and they are both acid neutral. The back is in good condition with the impressions of framing nails around the edges as would be expected. The mat is bright and clean without aging or damage so we are sending the print still mounted with two framer's strips on the back and the mat loose. The mat measures about 19 3/8" x 24 3/8" with an opening approx. 9 1/2" x 14 1/2" which shows and frames ... morethe plate impression. The print is on laid paper as it should be and is generally bright and clean with some ink fading and spotting. Outer area foxing or toning, several tiny pin holes and other expected wrinkles and marks. The bottom portion shows the remnants of binding and is bumped and injured as shown in the photos below. However, once the print is matted and framed, it presents quite nicely. The paper measures approx. 11" x 18" and the plate impression measures approx. 8 5/8" x 13 7/8" The upper right corner is stamped"LXXVII. and the name of furniture piece is"Desk& Bookcase. The bottom is marked"T. Chippendale inv. et del. Pub. according to act of Parliam. 1753. and"T. Muller sculp. There are many small numbers and marks that are in the engraving of the desk and bookcase- don't know if these are specs. or refer to plans. Please note that it was difficult for the camera to produce accurate colors and textures of the mat and print but we were able to scan small portions of both. These do show both color and texture accurately and they are the first two images below. WE PROMISE TO: Safely pack your item(s) using both new and r

English George III Chippendale Mahogany Slant Front Desk, 18th Century c. 1780
Fine English George III Chippendale Mahogany Slant Front Desk Late 18th Century Item# 130106KKP08 This is a very fine work of precision. Laudable in every regard as a work of a highly skilled craftsman. The first feat was the selection of boards that would truly set this desk apart- it is an understatement to describe the golden and brilliant flow of mahogany from the slant lid through the top as simply brilliant. It is pure and breathtaking. The paired boards are literally superior to almost every desk we have handled in their visual qualities: the excited swirls of each board flow into one another with a symmetry that is not simply mirrored or"match-booked" but is carefully planned and took great consideration on the part of the craftsman. Effect like this is rare and shows great taste and means. The rest of the case has a warm"plum ... morepudding" appearance to the mahogany. The graduated drawer facades intentionally restrained in order to highlight the stunning gilt-bronze hardware on each drawer. These original pieces are works of art, exceedingly expensive even at the time of production. Flanking the drawers are the drawer slides, these with dangling hand forged gilt bronze pulls. Each of these parts is framed in thin applied cockbead molding; on the drawers, this molding wraps around the hand dovetailed front joints. The sides of the case are solid planks of mahogany. Each a fine and broad selection- the left side is a single plank, the right side is two planks of very close grain formations. The back of the case is undisturbed with even color, the entire case resting over original bracket feet of robust and appropriate breadth to match the overall air of the case. Pieces of this quality were crafted for patrons of exceptional means and taste. In it's day. This slant front desk would have been considered an outstanding piece; today it retains the same dynamic appeal it's first customer enjoyed while it was on the floor of the shop. Finished in a high luster french polish, protecting th

A fan carved door that is complimented by Tiger Maple work surface. The case has great integrity& presence with four graduated drawers and original loafers. To address the first and most obviously important feature of this desk is this whimsical variation on the drake foot. These legs are absolutely beyond any shadow of a doubt correct and original to this desk's case. We have been over it with a fine tooth comb. The legs have an extreme Ogee form that lends to the handsome appearance of this ... morefine American Revolutionary War vintage Chippendale period desk. The importation of mahogany was becoming extremely difficult due to the British Naval Blockades of important ports and trade routes. Existing stockpiles of mahogany were scarce and native woods had to be employed. The secondaries of this desk are in pine with chamfered chestnut panels on its drawer bottoms. This desk is pure and correct in its first finish and obviously a cleaned surface. The case of this desk has a wonderful robust dovetailed single plank base made of old growth native pine and a very unique and telling pine tooled molding that accents its base.

FABULOUS WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS CIRCA 1770 CHIPPENDALE PERIOD SOLID TIGER MAPLE DESK WITH COMPLETELY DOVETAILED CASE With our sheer delight and are both humbled and proud to offer you this fabulous circa 1770 American Revolutionary War era Chippendale period solid tiger maple desk attributed to the Pioneer Valley of Western. Massachusetts(likely Deerfield, Mass) The awesome desk has a completely dovetailed case. Its top case, its old growth single width pine plank base board and even its bracket base all around are all entirely dovetailed and make the desk identifiable by its construction technique provenance notwithstanding. It has fabulous original back panels and white pine chamfered drawer panels all, of course, on wonderfully dovetailed drawers. The desk has received some professional museum grade restoration to its base structural supports. ... moreThis is very common among heavy Chippendale period desks that had original pine support elements. Pine is a secondary wood, degrades as a"softwood" much faster than hardwoods and pieces that have belonged to multigenerational families typically have their pieces professionally maintained to keep its structural integrity. One back edge of the desk has a very small dry rot spot and one was addressed on the other edge. We would be happy to have our woodworker insert a small splice or you can leave it alone like we prefer to do. Again not at all unusual in 18th Century pieces. This comes from a part of the United States that in the 18th Century was directly in the path of major British Army campaigns advancing through Massachusetts and light hit and run engagements by the Colonial Militia. Its a wonder it survived at all. It is adorned with period Chippendale brasses that appear correct and original to the piece. It has all its original locks in tact and a interior that is both wonderful and befitting the desk with great moldings, drawers, document cubbies, a door with two smaller drawers behind it and two tiny hidden drawers concealed within the moldings.

Antique Chippendale Slant Top Desk Signed Albert R. Winroth
This antique Chippendale desk is tiger maple with dovetailing throughout all the drawers. Body, and top of the desk. It is signed by Albert R. Winroth and has a beautiful inscription of historical prominence that reads"Renovated by Albert R. Winroth and Sons Stoughton Mass. Oct. 7th, 1939 Just the way Dad would have done it. History, Hitler offers peace. Here's hoping they accept for the sake of the common European people" on the bottom drawer. This I believe is in reference to the Munich Agreement where Hitler informed Chamberlain that Germany was going to occupy the Sudetenland. Thus the removal of the Czechoslovakians in the area. On September 29 1938 Chamberlain, Hitler, Edouard Daladier and Mussolini met in Munich and agreed that Germany would complete its occupation but an international commission would consider other ... moredisputed areas. At Chamberlain's request, Hitler would sign a peace treaty between the U.K. and Germany by March 39' Chamberlain sought disarmament between the five men in the Munich agreement. On September 1 1939 German forces would invade Poland thus entering Britain and France into the War where as late as July 1940, Some politicians inside and outside the government were still willing to consider Hitler's peace offer, but newly elected Prime Minister Winston Churchill would not. Wikipedia) For the historian. This desk would be an excellent addition to their collection or to do their writing on. Another of the Albert R. Winroth desks has been featured in the 2008 Kovel's Antique guide. Page#273 as selling for $4,481. As my research shows, Albert Richard Winroth was born in Almhult, Sweden on August 28, 1869 and had 7 children before passing away on March 19th 1932 in Boston Mass. Of these 7 children he had 4 sons whose names are Richard, Gustav, Victor, and Albert. This would place one or more of these men as being the master craftsmen in the renovation of this desk, thus giving credence to"Just the way Dad would have done it. I will try to find out more r

CIRCA 1770'S CHERRY CHIPPENDALE DESK W/AMPHITHEATER INTERIOR-UPPER CRV-MASS
FINE 18TH CENTURY CHIPPENDALE CHERRY DESK WITH AMPHITHEATER INTERIOR-UPPER CONNECTICUT RIVER VALLEY-SPRINGFIELD. MASSACHUSETTS CIRCA 1770'S With our compliments we are thrilled to offer you this most exceptional circa 1770's Chippendale period cherry desk from the Upper Connecticut River Valley of Western Massachusetts. This desk just jumped right out at us the moment we locked eyes on it. We are based in the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts on the banks of the Connecticut River. 18th& early 19th Century Upper Connecticut River Valley furniture is one of our greatest passions. This is the home of a most distinct discipline of Colonial American furniture making. We have& continue to extensively study CRV case pieces. Chairs and decorative arts. The known works of Arron& Eliphalet Chapin, William Lloyd, Peletiah Bliss ... moreand our other lesser known important cabinet makers are one of our strongest passions. We are very fortunate to have the amazing resources of the Connecticut River Valley Museum& Historic Deerfield locally available along with some of the best Estates belonging to the oldest families in America. We take great pride in our collective ability to identify and attribute many of our native pieces we encounter. In this desk we immediately noted some extremely unique deviations telling us it is crafted by one of the smaller Upper CRV shops with its origins being between the Springfield and Northampton, Massachusetts region of the CRV. We strongly feel you are looking at one of the few surviving pieces by this yet to be attributed cabinet maker& joiner. We have taken careful measurements& photographic detailing of its unique characteristics and if we are ever able to correctly attribute this desk we will be honored to notify you. This desk is defined by a super look, glowing old finish with perfect scale and form employing a dovetailed and period rose head nail joined case. Its drawer lid and all the drawer facings are molded with very a tightly precise carving technique

The center drawer features a wonderful sunk 18-lobed shell carved design flowing into the two drawers below it, a design common to these work centers, each drawer face carved out of a solid piece of mahogany. The case is crafted of solid single boards of mahogany along each side. Dovetailed into the parallel-grained pine case bottom and through-dovetailed at the top.

American Chippendale Walnut Antique Slant Front Desk, Pennsylvania c. 1790-1815
AMERICAN CHIPPENDALE WALNUT SLANT FRONT ANTIQUE DESK. PENNSYLVANIA Probably Delaware River Valley. Circa 1790-1815 Item# 1407JXE27P This is an outstanding example of late Chippendale from the Delaware River Valley region of Pennsylvania. The craftsman executing this work selected the walnut planks with great care. Utilizing a positively chaotic grain flow for the drawers and prospect door with a more symmetrical grain for the lid and sides of the case. Lifting over period brass hinges(possibly original) to rest firmly on projecting lopers reveals a rectangular prospect door flanked by document drawers and two-over-one drawers beneath four pigeon-hole letter slots. The document drawer sides are covered with period inscriptions. Much of it being accounting but also with a note in the same hand and pigment reading"August 4 1812" and ... morea somewhat illegible signature of"Ger Ryall Jr. The facade of the desk is composed of four graduated drawers with molded lipping and period brasses in the original holes(probably replacements) The drawers are constructed in the typical manner for this region. The frame of poplar with dovetails of the sides contained within the dovetails of the front and back, the bottom boards half-lapped and deeply chamfered along the edges to set in grooves along the sides and front with triangular glue blocks along the chamfered edges for permanence. The back edge is tacked with square forged iron nails. The interior of the case features three-quarter depth dust boards of yellow pine. These joined together with tongue-in-groove joinery that has long since separated and left gaps between sections. The underside of the desk is clean and solidly constructed with a large rectangular block inside each foot- the underside is apparently untouched and retains an illegibly signature in large strokes. The"B" J" or"R" that is so boldly represented on the underside is also found on the bottom of several drawers and both document drawers. The back of the desk is untouched ot

The drawer blades are set into the sides of the case behind a thin applied stile on either side, these carved with raised edges to simulate cockbead molding around the drawers.

EXCEPTIONAL AMERICAN CHIPPENDALE MAHOGANY SLANT FRONT DESK OVER CLAW FEET Salem or Boston Massachusetts. C. 1770-90 Item# 211CKJ26F This very fine American Chippendale desk almost certainly originates from the Salem or Boston work centers in Massachusetts during the last quarter of the 18th Century.

The desk top is constructed with a solid horizontal plank flanked by groove-and-tongue vertical strips, lifting smoothly over period replaced brass hinges and resting on the projecting lopers with original brass knobs to reveal a large writing surface and gallery of nine small drawers and four scalloped cubby ... moreholes. The drawers are each inscribed for where each belongs in the scheme of the desk, in pencil 1-9, and each is hand dovetailed with chamfered bottoms rabbeting into the drawer frame. The center drawer features a wonderful sunk 18-lobed shell carved design flowing into the two drawers below it, a design common to these work centers, each drawer face carved out of a solid piece of mahogany. The case is crafted of solid single boards of mahogany along each side. Dovetailed into the pine case bottom and through-dovetailed at the top.

Antique Chippendale 19 Drawer Walnut Slant Front Desk American circa 1700's
For your Bidding consideration in this Auction is an Antique Walnut(the estate I acquired this from said it was walnut. Another person said it may be mahogany so please view photos) Slant Front Desk. In researching the desk, a very similar desk recently sold on Ebay and was stated to have been made circa 1770 in Philadelphia which is where I am getting my estimated date and place of manufacture from as in all of my research it most closely resembles that one. Please view photos to determine for yourself an estimate of age and manufacturer dating. The desk has 2"Secret" compartments, one is hidden as a false bottom in one of the drawers, the other hidden in the cabinet beneath one of the drawers/ May be others I haven't found. Note the large 4 bottom drawers are graduated in size and pencil numbered. Following are the dimensions: ... moreHeight: 44 inches Width: 39 3/4 inches Depth: 20 1/2 inches Weight: estimate 100-125 pounds. I do not have a good way to weigh it so this is just an estimate The condition for age overall is good. A few things to note is there are as follows: one of the brass key hold covers is missing. May have had a hinged door inside the cabinet at top, there is a very old"mouse hole" finger notch in the top drop front section giving easy access to open the desk, one of the decorative drawers inside the top section of the cabinet is missing the front and sides. I do not have a key for it. May also show a few other scratches and age related dings but overall a very solid, beautiful desk. I am offering this as pick up only as I have never packed a piece of furniture like this and would be nervous about not packing it correctly for shipping. I do work with a local UPS Store who does an excellent job though so am confident they will do a great job for you or you can pick it up or have your own shipper come and pick it up. I can deliver it to the UPS Store for a nominal $25 fee for gas& time(they are 30 miles from me) and you can make the shipping arrangements directly with them(
