Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue of Rare and Beautiful Early American and Colonial Furniture, an Extraordinary Gathering of Hooked Rugs and Other Contemporaneous Treasures Collected During Many Years by the Amateur Mrs. F. H. Davis of Flushing, L. I: To Be Sold at Unrestricted Public Sale for Account of the Owner on the Afternoons Herein Stated It has seldom fallen to my lot to pass under review such a characteristic collection of Early American furniture and domes tic objects as that belonging to Mrs. F. H. Davis, of Flushing, L. I. Since her earliest years, it seems that Mrs. Davis has col lected, and as her chief regard has always been for the old - time things of our ancestors, it has followed, as a natural consequence, that she has accumulated, in the many years lying between, an extraordinarily large number of Early American things which, thanks to her knowledge and unerring judgment, are beyond all question or cavil as to their genuineness. Colonial is what these objects are somewhat loosely termed, but this name is correctly applied only to furniture, etc., made during the first three-quar ters of the eighteenth century, either in this country or across the ocean, and Early American will be found to be a much more truthful, as well as judicious, method of naming a large portion of them. It will be noticed that a large majority of Mrs. Davis's possessions were procured in New England, a fact mainly due to the circumstances that she is a Maine woman born and bred, and that the field of her activities has lain chiefly in those North eastern States we are accustomed to know as New England. Particularly striking, for instance, will be found the gathering of early Hooked Rugs. Owing to their fascinating colors, often due to the dyeing of the yarn by the native Indians, the naivete of their design and their admirable wearing qualities, these domestic rugs have lately come into high favor. There are those still liv ing, by the way, Whose girlish energies were largely devoted to the hooking of these rugs, but all of those here offered date from the beginning of the nineteenth century.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Caroline Coleman Duke Collection of Early American Furniture and Objects of Art: The Most Important and Largest Collection of Its Kind Ever Gathered in the South, Containing Fine Pieces in Walnut, Pine and Mahogany Gathered in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina The Anderson Galleries have now the pleasure of offer ing by public auction the important collection of early Ameri can furniture gathered by Mrs. Caroline Coleman Duke, of Richmond, Virginia. Mrs. Duke is of an old and well-known Southern family. She has been active for years in every en deavor to preserve the traditions, historic reminiscences and art treasures of the South, individually and in connection with the various patriotic and historic societies of Virginia. She has collected antique furniture all over the South, going as far as Georgia. Her collection is typically Southern, and brings to the Northerner a distinctive flavor of an unknown land. It is an unknown land indeed. Northerners go in in creasing numbers southward. The South, before the Civil War a land of romance to the Northerner, has again become the land of romance; and, by a strange irony of fate, the North erner tries to penetrate the spirit of this land and this romance, by patronizing the Hot Springs and White Sulphur resorts in Virginia, Pinehurst and Asheville in North Carolina, Augusta in Georgia, and in Florida the semi-tropical Winter resorts, efliciently run by Northerners in a Southern stage setting. The real South is veiled in a Fata Morgana, a mirage that conceals what it seems to make clear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
