All show wood is highly figured tiger maple with padfoot cabriole legs and fan carved center drawers.

The Lowboy or Dressing Table features the common one-over-three drawer motif with a shaped apron and extreme figure on the top.

The Highboy has a single finial centering the broken-arched bonnet top with a three-over-four long drawer pattern in the upper section and the one-over-three drawer pattern in the lower case, closely matching the accompanying lowboy. All this standing tall on padfoot cabriole legs.

The matching mirror is of a slightly later design having a sunburst carving that unites it with its set-mates.
