A Chippendale tall chest with 'tray' top, triple top drawer-the center one with a fan, six rows of drawers all on a tall bracket base.  Maple, with chestnut secondary wood.  In exceptional original condition-with no damage to the case or drawers, and in a fine old finish.  The brasses are hand-cast replacements.

         This is the classic Rhode Island chest, with a boldly-projecting top molding, graduated drawers, and tall, straight bracket feet.  C. 1770-80.
