Description
Though women did not legally own household items in early America, Revere family tradition holds that the Ladies Work Table ca. 1810, currently on display in the Revere House Best Chamber, belonged to Paul’s second wife, Rachel Revere. Sharon C. Mehrman, furniture maker and historian, will demonstrate carving elements found on a table like Rachel’s.
