Regency Period, three-division Mahogany Canterbury
A Regency Period, three-division Mahogany Canterbury, with single full-width drawer retaining original handles. Raised on slender turned tapering legs, terminating in Brass Cups and Castors.
Lit: In Thomas Sheraton’s Cabinet Directory published in 1803 he wrote: “CANTERBURY is the name of the metropolis of Kent but has of late years been applied to some pieces of cabinet work because, as the story goes, the bishop of that see first gave orders for these pieces. One piece is a small music stand, with two or three hollow topped partitions, framed in light slips of mahogany, about three inches apart from each other and about 8 inches deep for holding music books. These have sometimes a small drawer, 3 inches deep, and the whole length of it which is 18 inches, its width 12 inches and the whole height 20 inches. The legs are made of 1 1/8 mahogany turned or plain, tapered, with castors and are adapted to run in under a piano-forte.”
