Bun feet

i have always associated this term with the ovoid feet on case pieces of the william and mary period. while the claw and ball is clearly the predominant foot on chippendale, the queen anne cabriole leg ends in a pad, slipper, trifid or spanish foot.Toyokuni3 (talk) 16:17, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Collections

this section seems either superfluous or grossly underdeveloped. is there a collection of 18th century furniture anywhere that isn't full of cabriole legged pieces?in this country one could start with the smithsonian, winterthur, colonial williamsburg, the boston mfa, the wadsworth atheneum, dearborn -----. i could go on at very considerable length.Toyokuni3 (talk) 00:32, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
