		"Shaker" Pantry Box - I am describing this as "Shaker" because this box has all the characteristics and design elements of a shaker box. Everything I know about Shaker boxes tells me this is Shaker. However it is not signed, so I can't be absolutely positive. The experts will know. If it truly is, then you know what it can be worth. I have photographed every possible detail and angle. You be the judge. I am offering this box at a reasonable price and will describe it, as usual, to the best of my ability. The surface is an original dark green paint. The bottom oak band is thick, measuring 3/16". The oak buttons extend about 1" into the box and have wooden splints securing them in place. The inside and outside edges of the box as well as the lid band have been feathered, as would have been done by the Shakers. The top band is shaped and chamfered like a swallow tail, also a tell tail sign of Shaker. The swing handle is shaped and chamfered as well, in the form of a Shaker handle. One may question whether there was additional nails added. The bottom band has 4 nails, 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom that are in addition to the nails that secure the band together. Judging by the shape of the nails as well as the oxidation of these nails on the inside (same as all the rest), I am of the opinion that these nails were used in the original construction of the box. Since this box is so thick, extra nails were required to secure the band. This is my opinion. The top band did have some work done to it and one extra nail is suspect. With this box being so old, the top had shrunk in one dimension which would leave a small gap and perhaps weaken the top. I can see where small strips had been put in place to take up this gap, thereby tightening up the top. This repair is well done and difficult to notice but I mention it in the sake of accuracy. This pantry box is by far the best I have ever offered for sale. Measures 11 1/2" in diameter x 7 1/2" tall. Price: SOLD

		19th C Penn Yan 3 Gal Churn - Outstanding double blue flower on this stoneware tabletop churn. Made and signed by J. Mantell from the Penn Yan N.Y. Pottery. Blue splashes on the handles.

Another faint spider hairline under the right handle. Measures 10" diameter X 13 1/4" tall. Dasher is 40 1/2" long. A note about Stoneware: It is not unusual to find 150 year old stoneware with minor dings and hairline cracks. Stoneware was not originally intended as elegant, expensive objects created strictly for beauty and display. They were utilitarian goods meant to be used, as well as admired. Minor chips, age lines and repairs do not detract from the overall value or beauty of these highly collectable pieces. For more info on Stoneware in Western NY, click here. Price: SOLD

19th C Painted Hanging Cupboard - Wonderful early hanging cupboard, nearly all original. The only non-original piece is the right top corner molding. Super original red paint, lock (intact), hinges, and knob. Appears as though the latch on the front was added after the key was lost. Judging from the wear, my guess is that key was lost decades ago or possibly this cabinet came with the latch as a back up closure mechanism. The door is made with a floating flat panel, housed in a mortise and tenon and pinned door frame. The face frame surrounding the door has a nice bead along the edge. . The back is chamfered into the hand cut dado's in the side panels. This is a well made, circa 1840, hanging wall cupboard in nearly original condition. The first few photos show the true color of this piece. Many of the close-up photos are meant to indicate the detail, not the color. Great find, and a great buy!

Super little mousehole on the lower right door which adds a nice touch. Wear and patina in all the right places. Square nailed. There is a date of 1903 painted on the back (see photos) which we think is the date that this piece was painted. It appears it was originally all open on the top and in 1903 the drawers and paint were added. This drysink could look just as wonderful in your home too! Circa 1875. Measures 47 1/4"W x 52 1/4"H x 21 1/2"D Price: SOLD

		19th Century Blue Piesafe. This piesafe has got the greatest paint, actually 3 colors; Blue, mustard accent, green trim.

Many years ago the top must have closed on something and the left molding tore off leaving some damage on the top where the nails pulled through. Also some minor losses on the right side top molding.

Original rocker structure underneath. Purchased from an estate who's grandfather was raised in this cradle. The only thing I can find wrong with this cradle is a small missing piece of wood on the tail board of the rocker at the top edge (see photos). This appears to be a 19th century break and does not detract from the piece at all. Other than that minor detail, the cradle is in perfect condition for it's age and has appropriate wear and distressing. Measures 39 1/2" long x 18" wide X 19 1/2" tall. Circa 1860 Price: SOLD

Mortise and Tenon pegged doors with reverse raised panel doors. 2 shelves inside with a plate groove. This cupboard could also be used as a hanging cupboard and perhaps at one time it did hang. There is a 1" diameter hole in the back (see photo) which was probably made for a cord plug. There is also an early repair to a tearout on the top of the right door. Great piece of our early American history. Measures: 35"W x 38"H x 14"D Price: SOLD

		19th Century Red Painted Grain Bin. Exceptional early grain bin in it's original Oxblood Red paint. All square nailed. 6 board chest consisting of 28" wide front and back boards. This is a rare find and to find a bin with boards this wide is exceptional. The right side has a split in it as can be seen in the photo. Still solid and sound. The top's left hinge has an early repair to it from when someone threw open the top without supporting it and it must have tore the wood. The repair is early as it still retains the red paint. Also intriguing I found a set of mortises in the back board for hinges however no mating mortise in the top. I believe the top IS original to the piece as the wood is the same in color and grain as the rest of the boards. The existing hinges look to be original and are also mortised in. My guess is that the builder intended to use only 2 smaller hinges but then switched to a larger heavier hinge to support the large top. This is a great piece of early Americana. We are glad that we were able to obtain it from where it was on display at the Hinckley Folk Art Museum in Ithica, NY. Price: SOLD

18th C. HUGE 25" Beehive Turned Batter Bowl in Oxblood Paint! This is the oldest and largest bowl I have ever come across. Truly a collector piece. I shouldn't be letting this go for ANY price, as I may not find another like it. Beehive turned from a foot treadle lathe with the original milk paint. Loaded with character, chop marks, and wear in all the right places. A bowl over 200 years old is sure to have some cracks. This one has one major crack that has been repaired and is under control so that no more checking will occur. Another crack on the other side does not go all the way to the edge and never will, as that has been wired tight as well. The repairs have been properly made and keep the integrity of this bowl intact. Measures 25 3/8" X 24 3/8" X 8" high. Price: SOLD

		19th Century General Store Coffee Bin. Great advertising in original paint. Still has original divided tin insert. Super red paint with "A&P" advertising. Missing the back.

Child's Stepback Cupboard. Fantastic example of a primitive diminutive stepback cupboard that has been scraped down. Some of the red milk paint still remaining. Great arched glass door. Super form, very folky. 34" high X 19" wide X 11" deep. Top section is 12" tall X 8" wide X 8" deep. Price: SOLD

The other in the very bottom which you can barely see any light at all through. Original red paint under older red paint. Older red paint around turn of the century.
