Two-piece: the upper section with a bold denticulated cornice over raised-panel doors and rope-turned or gadrooned columns; the lower section with a blocked reverse-serpentine front over a gadrooned skirt which matches the upper case quarter columns on bold ogee bracket feet. Blocked interior with seven drawers and pigeonholes. Imperfections. 83”h. 37”w. 19.5”d. Sold at Sotheby’s (New York), October 2002, lot 286.

The subtle reverse-serpentine front relates to several pieces attributed to the shop and school of Eliphalet Chapin. See Kugelman et al, Connecticut Valley Furniture: Eliphalet Chapin and His Contemporaries, 1750-1800, pp. 162-166. The rope-turned quarter-columns on the bookcase relate to several pieces from the Loomis Group in nearby Colchester. See Kugelman et al, pp. 232-236. $16,000-$22,000

2 PORTRAIT OF A GIRL ATTRIBUTED TO AMMI PHILLIPS (NEW YORK/CONNECTICUT, 1788-1865).

Portraits of Russell dorr and his family, all by Phillips (about twenty years earlier), are currently in the collection of the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Collection at Colonial Williamsburg.

This painting undoubtedly was painted during Phillip’s 1830-1835 period when he revisited some of the old families for which he had painted portraits of in his 1810-1815 period. This portrait is mounted on its original strainer (as opposed to a stretcher) which is typical of Phillips. $4,000-$6,000

267 DECORATED BLANKET CHEST. Schoharie County, New York, 1820-1825, pine. dovetailed case, bracket feet, and interior till.

45.75"w. 19.5"d. Ex Stephen Score (Mass), ex Christies, New York, January 20, 2012, lot 217.

Painted blanket chests were important pieces in the homes of German settlers in Schoharie County, as well as Albany and Mohawk counties. The painted blanket chest originated from the traditions of the German homeland from which the ancestors of the New York settlers had fled in the first years of the eighteenth century, later immigrating to the Hudson Valley as part of the mercantile experiment sponsored by the government of Britain. Mary Antoine de Julio, scholar, states that these New York chests are as representative of German-American culture as their Pennsylvania counterparts.

The name “ I BRIGHT” is stamped on the inside of the rear seat rail.

This chair descended in the Ruch family of Pennsylvania and Ohio. The original owner was likely Peter Ruch (17461823) of Northampton (now Lehigh) County, Pennsylvania.

Ruch served as a major in the Continental Army during the American Revolution.

Though Ruch married, he does not seem to have had any children, and thus the chair likely passed to his nephew, Peter (1779-1828), of Ruchsville, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania (a town he founded). The younger Ruch served in the War of 1812, ultimately rising to the rank of brigadier general in the Pennsylvania Militia. The chair then descended through this line of the Ruch family.

Garth’s makes no warranty express or implied to the buyer as to whether a natural stone has been enhanced. Additionally, antiques, by the very nature of their age, have wear that reflects their years of use. As a result, honest wear earned from use is to be expected and is sometimes the proof that an item is an antique. Normal wear will not be listed. Buyers who would like to know the fine points regarding condition should call prior to the auction. We would prefer that you examine the items before you place a bid. All other guarantees of authenticity of authorship, expressed or implied, are hereby disclaimed. There is no other warranty, express or implied. Each and every lot is sold “as is”.

LIABILITY: Garth’s Auctions, Inc. guarantees the authenticity of origin of a lot for a period of twenty-one days from the date of the auction and only to the original purchaser of record at the auction. If it is determined to Garth’s Auctions, Inc.’s satisfaction that the first bold line is incorrect, the sale will be rescinded provided the lot is returned to Garth’s Auctions, Inc. in the same condition in which it was at the time of the auction. It is also Garth’s Auctions, Inc.’s policy to have the purchaser obtain, at the purchaser’s expense, the opinion of one (or two in some cases) recognized experts in the field, mutually acceptable to Garth’s Auctions, Inc. and the purchaser, before Garth’s Auctions, Inc. determines whether to rescind the sale under the above guarantee.

Therefore, any lot not receiving an opening bid of at least $50.00 will be passed.

ESTIMATES & RESERVES: Presale estimates are intended as guides and may not be reflective of actual gavel price. Some of the items in this auction are subject to a reserve.
