Perfect 18th C. Measure
Particularly good mid-18th C. measure in chestnut with thick walls and bevel-edged single lap secured with 22 large rosehead nails. Probably Connecticut or Rhode Island, ca. 1750-1800. The thick white pine base shows the deep chuck marks of an early pole- or foot-driven lathe. Pieces of genuine Colonial era treen in this condition are exceptionally rare. 8”W x 4 5/8”H.
