Abstract
Photograph depicting a small chest of drawers with cabriole legs. It is made of Coromandel wood, with silver fittings copied from a box at the Koopmans de Wet House. At the time it was photographed it belonged to Mr. William Fehr, but is indicated as the property of Mrs. J. G. Gordon in G. E. Pearse's book "Eighteenth Century Furniture in South Africa". See Fig. 142 on p. 114, and also Figs. 209 and 210 for detail photographs of the drawer handle and key escutcheon.
