Bradley CO. The Neoclassical influence on Philadelphia resulted in the development of new forms such as this “ladies” writing desk. Inspiration for this design can be seen in Thomas Sheraton’s The Cabinet-Maker’s and Upholsterer’s Drawing Book, London, A Philadelphia Federal Inlaid Plum Pudding Mahogany Writing Desk, Circa 1805 1802, plate 50, page 406. Philadelphia cabinetmaker Henry Connelly retains a strong association with work in this manner; some of his documented pieces employ a similar aesthetic and detail.
