Description:
Rare rosewood Rococo Victorian sewing stand attributed
to John Henry Belter. It has a needlepoint on the inside of the
lid. The identical piece is shown on page 83 of The Furniture of
John Henry Belter and the Rococo Revival by Marvin D. Schwartz. The
description reads, "A rectangular box-shaped storage area
with a sarcophagus like cover and a lower drawer with tapering sides
on simple cabriole legs supported by cross-stretchers that form a
shelf in the center. There is a pierced shell-and-leaf carving on
the bottom drawer. This simple piece was used with a bed by Belter
in a home furnished from the Belter shop." Belter made many chairs,
sofas and marble top tables but seldom accessory pieces. This is a
great find in excellent original condition!
