From May 128, 1986 appraisal: Furniture, American. Anonymous Federal Period cabinetmaker. Small chest with bracket feet, mahogany, carved, joined, brass keyhole escutcheon. 1789-1830. The integral stand with its bracket feet juts out beyond the chest proper. The veneer facing runs flush with the corner posts, but the hinged cover projects to make a small overhang. The simplicity of the form is characteristic of the Federal Period.
