This rare étagère is made from the finest figured solid rosewood and rosewood veneers. To demonstrate the highest level of craftsmanship, all of the drawers are lined with satinwood veneer! I have never seen this before. The top has a beautiful fret carved from solid rosewood, all the shelve edges are finished with an interesting molding and the bottom apron has a graceful shape. This étagère was made in New York City circa 1840 probably by Joseph Meeks & Sons. It would make an exceptional display stand for porcelains, etc.
