This fine dressing table is related to several examples signed by the Boston makers Thomas Emmons and George Archibald. A pier table by the firm with related gilt-brass mounts is illustrated by Page Talbott in "Boston Empire Furniture" Antiques, (May 1975 p. 878 figure 2), and a signed sideboard with very similar feet is illustrated in Boston in the Age of Neoclassicism (Hirschl & Adler Galleries, New York 1999) cat. no. 15).
