DescriptionA group of built-in corner cupboards of similar neoclassical design has been identified with the Kingston-Napanee area. They are architectural in form and richly carved with embellishments such as reeded and fluted pilasters, quarter fans, radiating fans and dentils. Some of the cupboards have glazed doors which are often arched. All are likely by the same maker who was probably a house carpenter-builder, rather than a cabinetmaker.
