Step Back Cupboard, True Antique Salesman Sample/Apprentice Piece James Thrall Soby which I have not taken

which I have not taken out of the frame

I really like that each Felix has its own distinct personality

lined in orange fabric

together portraying a selection of court figures in fine dress

where he kept a large studio in the basement of a large Victorian home

Step Back Cupboard, True Antique Salesman Sample/Apprentice Piece James Thrall Soby which I have not takenI'm not very knowledgable about furniture, tabletop or full scale, but I do know, from looking at a whole lot of tabletop scale chests, that this is of a different ilk than most described as salesman samples; it is truly that, or an apprentice piece, not a piece of doll furniture, and a rare one in my experience for being what I think would correctly be called a step back cupboard, with three drawers below and glass doors encasing three shelves above.
