Description: Super walnut Victorian bedroom suite made by John A. Ellis, East Cambridge, Ma. (original label is inside drawer - see photo). The suite includes a writing table, half commode, and dresser with original white marble tops (some normal staining on the marbles). Each piece features raised burled drawer fronts with ornately carved pulls. Ellis used black trim on many of the moldings to give contrast. This original decoration is mostly intact. The dresser has a secret drawer in the bottom and two jewelry boxes on top of the marble. There are also two covered compartments on the inside of the top drawer (see photo). Both the dresser mirror and desk have interesting open carved sides. The dresser mirror has candle cups on each side and a large carved crest. It is most unusual to have the desk as part of one of these suites. This is a great signed suite in good original condition.
