American Aesthetic Carved Walnut Wardrobe, 19th c., possibly Daniel Pabst, Philadelphia, three cabinets with dolphin carved gallery, linen fold and flower carved panels, strap hinges, reticulated pulls, h. 99 1/4 in., w. 95 in., d. 24 1/2 in. Note: The exuberant and well carved dolphins, diagonal beaded door panels and distinctive strap hinges on this monumental wardrobe appear in known examples from the workshop of Daniel Pabst from the designs of Philadelphia architect Frank Furness (1839-1912), some seen in the furniture of the Physick House in Cape May, New Jersey and Temple Rodeph Shalom, Philadelphia. The distinct design of this lot indicates it was designed for a specific space and purpose, likely a Furness commission.
