Description	Image shows a mirror, a Chippendale style chest or cabinet and two display stands or candle stands. The chest had heavy cabriole legs with shell carvings on the knees and fine ball-and-claw feet. A vine and shell motif is on the center of the cut out skirt. The top has a molded edge and the front edges of the chest have receded quarter columns. The shell motif is repeated on the crown of the mirror. This mirror is known as a Prince of Wales mirror and is in the Georgian Chippendale style. It is a copy of one in Williamsburg and was sold by the Friedman Brothers Company starting in 1938. The fillet around the beveled glass and the feathers are gold. The stands have ball-and claw feet ascending to an urn forming the base of the stand. Fine Asian bowls have been placed on the two stands and the center of the lowboy chest. Title note: Moores Antique Shop.
