18th Century Pennsylvania Cherrywood and Cedar Blanket Chest
-
Description
Presenting a gorgeous 18th century piece of American furniture, namely, a 18th century Pennsylvania cherrywood and cedar blanket chest.
This chest is of simple form and construction, in the Shaker Style.
The exterior is made of cherrywood and the Interior is made of Cedar to protect the contents from moths.
It still has a glorious Cedar smell when opened.
This piece would be considered a 'Provincial" piece, made by craftsmen in rural Pennsylvania circa 1780-1800.
Lovely dovetailing and quality construction. It has a gorgeous natural patina consistent with its age.
The interior contains a lidded 'Candle Box" for holding candles.
The Chest sits on 4 pediment feet with scrolls.
Probably made by the Amish in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. -
