Antique miniature furniture has a rich tradition rooted in craftsmanship, practicality, and beauty. These tiny treasures were sometimes made as salesman's samples, which were identical to larger pieces and used by salesmen to showcase quality. On other occasions, these small items were made as apprentice pieces, intended to demonstrate their learned skills. The superior quality of the carving, combined with the custom brass hardware and the meticulous fitted interior suggest this was a refined salesman's sample.
