Elisha Tucker and Asa Griffin were presumably active in this cabinetmaking partnership in Boston, Massachusetts about 1809. There is little evidence that Elisha Tucker and Asa Griffin were ever partners, save for a few surviving labels. Both were engaged in cabinet-making and maintained their own shops, but a survey of the Boston directories from 1809 to 1830 does not yield conclusive evidence of a partnership. The Boston Directories also list a Lyman Tucker, Jr., a turner, living and working in Boston around the same time as Elisha Tucker and Griffin, however, there is no evidence to suggest a partnership between Lyman Tucker and Griffin, nor is there evidence for an association between Elisha and Lyman Tucker."},{"label":"Subjects (AAT)","value":["Tambour desks"]},{"label":"Subjects","value":["Tambour desks"]},{"label":"History of Ownership","value":"Previously in the collection of Charles Woolsey Lyon, as of September 1962, and then, Mr. and Mrs. Chas Kaufmann, as of 1970."},{"label":"Description","value":"Federal-style tambour desk.  Cove molding outlines the top front and side edges of the upper case. Two tambour doors flank the central prospect unit, with a line of patterned banding above along the front and sides. The central prospect door is veneered and framed by stringing and a dark shade of veneer. The tambour doors and central prospect unit are bounded on the left and right sides by veneered panels also framed by stringing and a dark shade of veneer. The tambour doors have small knobs. The central prospect door has a keyhole on the left side. Decorative molding edges the bottom of the upper case. Stringing and veneer runs along the bottom molding and continues along the sides of the folded writing lid, which is slanted, veneered, and framed by stringing and a dark shade of veneer.  The lower case consists of three drawers and two lopers, both of which have one knob. The two bottom drawers are equal in width and length, but the top drawer is set between the lopers. In continuing with the decorative pattern of the uppercase, the drawers are veneered and framed in stringing and a dark shade of veneer. All three drawers each have two oval bail pulls with arched handles and one medial keyhole.  The front and side skirts are cyma curved. All four legs are thick and rectangular and taper slightly into block feet."},{"label":"Date Digitized","value":"7/19/2018"},{"label":"Marks, Signatures, and Inscriptions","value":"Printed, paper label: [ELISHA TUCKER, / CABINET AND CHAIR / MANUFACTURER, / RESPECTFULLY informs his friends and the Publick, that / he Manufactures and offers for Sale on reasonable terms, at No. / 40, MIDDLE-STREET?Ǫ.BOSTON, a general assortment of / CABINET FURNITURE and CHAIRS. / Mahogany Looking-Glass Frames / of all sizes, executed in the neatest manner and at the shortest notice. / N.B.
