    Description
    A FANTASTIC EARLY 19TH CENTURY ENFIELD, CT SHAKER COMMUNITY DOUBLE COMPARTMENT SLIDING LID CANDLE BOX IN PINE, CHERRY AND OAK AND STILL RETAINING ITS ORIGINAL STAIN AND CLEAR VARNISH SURFACE WITH GREAT WEAR AND PATINA.
    ENFIELD, CT COMMUNITY, CIRCA 1850-1860.
    A FANTASTIC PIECE DIRECTLY FORM THE NORTH FAMILY OF ENFIELD, CT SHAKERS.
    ALTHOUGH THE ENFIELD, CT SHAKER COMMUNITY WAS CLOSED IN 1917, THE NORTH FAMILY DISBANDED IN 1913.
    A FEW OF THE REMAINING SHAKERS FROM THE NORTH FAMILY DID NOT MOVE UP TO THE SHAKER COMMUNITY IN MAINE BUT RATHER ASSIMILATED BACK INTO THEIR NON-SHAKER FAMILIES IN ENFIELD.
    THIS GREAT BOX WAS ONE OF THOSE PIECES THEY BROUGHT OUT WITH THEM WHEN THEY LEFT.
    I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE NEALY ALL OF THE ITEMS THAT THEY BROUGHT OUT.
    MANY OF THESE PIECES WERE DISPLAYED OVER THE YEARS AT ANTIQUE FAIRS AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY EXHIBITS.
    WHAT A FANTASTIC PIECE WITH THE TYPICAL "SHAKER" IDEAS.
    IT APPEARS TO BE A SIMPLE AND VERY PRACTICAL SLIDING LID CANDLE BOX. BUT ON THE INSIDE IS AN ADDED, REMOVABLE TOP TRAY TO MAKE THE PIECE TWICE AS PRACTICAL.
    THE TRAY HAS A PAIR OF SIMPLE CUT HOLES ON THE ENDS TO HELP LEFT IT OUT. EVEN THE ORIGINAL MARKS TO LINE THE TRAY UP ON THE CORRECT SIDE IS STILL VISIBLE.
    A VERY RARE BOX, LIKE MANY OF THE ENFIELD, CT PIECES IT INCORPORATES THE USE OF VARIOUS WOODS.
    THE CASE IS WHITE PINE WITH A CHERRY LID. THE INTERIOR, REMOVABLE TRAY IS IN WHITE OAK.
    THE ORIGINAL SURFACE IS AN OLD CLEAR VARNISH OVER A LIGHT BROWN STAIN WITH GREAT WEAR AND PATINA.
    Minor surface losses as seen.
    There are a couple of very minor losses to the edges of the bevel cut sliding lid top as seen, but it is still tight and closes well.
    11 1/2" across, it is 6" deep and 6 1/4" tall.
    Typical wear and imperfections with age.
    Low starting Price and NO reserve.
