<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 291966, member: 5066"]Generally speaking with 18th century period pieces, these were the first "bedroom suites" back in the day. There was a tall chest of drawers (highboy) and a dressing table (lowboy) that matched each other. Very few of these suites survive today that are intact with both pieces, over the years they usually got split up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
