Quick Hits Brand/Maker: Harden Furniture Piece Name: Queen Anne Style Console / Sofa / Sideboard Table Style: Queen Anne / American Traditional Materials: Solid cherry wood; brass-tone hardware; one drawer with silver felt tray Era: Late 20th Century Country of Origin: USA Why We Love It: Six dovetail drawers in solid cherry with a silver tray drawer included — Harden built this like they expected it to outlast everyone in the room. More About This Item Six dovetail drawers. Solid cherry. Brass-tone hardware. Cabriole legs. A silverware drawer with the silver felt still intact. This Harden console table is the kind of piece that only makes sense when you see it in person and realize just how substantial it is — not merely decorative, but genuinely functional in a way that most console tables never manage. The Queen Anne silhouette does exactly what it's supposed to: cabriole legs with their characteristic S-curve bring lightness and movement to a piece that could otherwise feel heavy, while the solid cherry construction ensures it has the visual weight to anchor a hallway, sit behind a sofa, or hold its own as a sideboard in a dining room that doesn't have space for a full buffet. The brass-tone hardware is restrained and appropriate, neither gilded nor understated. One drawer lined with silver felt is a detail that signals how this table was intended — for a home that entertains properly, with silver that needs somewhere to live. Cherry wood this solid develops a patina over time that no veneered furniture can replicate. The grain deepens, the color warms, and the piece becomes more itself with every year. This one already has that quality: the warmth of a table that has been lived with, not stored. Design Style Queen Anne, in the American Colonial Revival tradition that Harden executed with particular consistency and care. The original Queen Anne style — which emerged in early 18th-century England and quickly traveled to the American colonies — represented the first truly graceful moment in furniture design, moving away from the heavy baroque forms that preceded it toward the flowing, curved silhouettes that feel as right today as they did three centuries ago. The six-drawer format positions this piece at the intersection of console table and credenza, making it as useful in a dining room as in an entry hall or behind a sofa. That functional flexibility is part of the enduring appeal of well-made traditional American furniture: it doesn't lock you into a single use or a single room. Brand Legacy Founded in 1844 in McConnellsville, New York, Harden Furniture is one of America's oldest continuously operating furniture manufacturers — a distinction that grows rarer with every passing decade. They have built their reputation on one core commitment: solid hardwood construction, at a time when most of the industry shifted to veneers and engineered materials. Their cherry pieces, produced across multiple decades, have developed a devoted collector following among buyers who understand the difference between furniture and good furniture. A solid Harden piece in cherry, in this condition, is not a compromise — it's a find.
