Highboy
Brings $46,000 at Nadeau's Spring Auction
WINDSOR, CT. - Made in Connecticut, a Queen Anne cherry highboy
that had spent most of its life in homes in Glastonbury and
Farmington led sales at Nadeau's annual spring auction on March
22.
The casepiece - which came with a detachable pierced crest,
according to some a vernacular attempt at a stylish Chapin-style
bonnet - sold in the room to Woodbury, Conn. dealer Harold Cole
for $46,000 including premium against an estimate of $25/35,000.
A pair of Windsor high chairs notable for their elegantly high
backs was also knocked down to Cole for $12,075. In all, Nadeau's
realized just under $600,000 on 480 lots.
