Product Description: Hickory Chair HC6288-10 Winterthur Estate Primrose Stand - In the mid-1700s and again one hundred years later, the naturalistic ornament of the rococo style was fashionable in American homes. The inspiration for this Hickory Chair table is a 19th-century triangular-shape salver beneath an 18th-century copper teakettle and stand in the Blackwell Parlor at Winterthur Museum. The scalloped and lobed rim encloses low-relief designs of foliate scrolls, a diamond-and-star pattern, and asymmetrical cartouches, fancy enough for the teakettle to be displayed in a parlor even when not in use. The curvaceous top of the table echoes the outline of the teakettle salver. The result is a charming form. Oxford finish with Antique Bronze standard.
Collection Features: From the library and antiques found in the Winterthur Museum, this collection pays homage to great American design. H. F. du Pont's vision of assembling the greatest examples of American furnishings into authentic room settings lives on in Hickory Chair's reproductions and adaptations. Combined in groupings or used individually, many of these timeless forms may be personalized through a wide range of finish options.
