EARLY TO MID 19TH CENTURY FOUR DOOR CUPBOARD/LINEN PRESS
We were so pleased to acquire this wonderful and early cupboard. At first, we thought it was a linen press, and it may be, but there are plate racks on each shelf that look to be authentic to the piece. This is very old, the EARLY hand cut nails and wood pegs show the early construction of this NJ piece. All the shelves are hand planed. The drawers are finely dovetailed. (remember, the less the dovetailing, the earlier the piece) I believe this is chestnut with apple wood inserts. This is an excellent size with plenty of storage and drawers also. I love these cupboards, they have so many uses!! Getting hard to find!!!

Where do you find a piece of American History! From Pa or NJ,
this is a wonderful 18th to early 19th century BENCH TABLE. The table lifts back to form a seat, and flips forward when needed. All original. Very early. The patina on this is exceptional, never touched. The bench sits so beautifully with this early table! As shown in the pictures, this early made table has one dovetail, connecting the bench or chair to the table. The 3 board top has two wide boards and one small board, indicating that when the table top was made, they wanted it just a little wider, so added the 5 inch board, ALL boards are original and measure 17 1/2" + 5" + 17" total39 1/2" wide x 57 " long. A chair sits very comfortably under and has plenty of leg room. The top has two cuts on it, most likely from food preparation and one end 'lifts' slightly from age.
