1750-1800 Settle

My love for New England settles began with my discovery of Tasha Tudor and her house.  They seemed to be everywhere. 
I finally found one at an Alabama auction this week.  This is the first real settle I have ever seen in person.  ( photo showing back) 
I think at least 95% of the audience didn't know what it was.
(another photo of back) 

Only two people bid against me.


I could not tell from the pre-auction photos how large it was. 

Rose head nails on the ends !



It is 4 1/2 feet long.....probably small compared to many others...but I love it.
