This highboy relates to a class of highboys that, as Albert Sack remarks, "combines the academic skill of the Boston school with the romatic flavor of the more free-spirited Salem school". He mentions this in his New Fine Points of Furniture when he discusses the masterpiece example at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. Whereas most highboys use plain pad feet, these examples use claw and ball feet and use double shells, both in the upper and lower case. Click here for more photos and description.
