Description:
A Southern Whitewashed Cypress or Pine Punkah, late 18th/early 19th c , probably Tidewater region, of trapezoidal form with a doweled panel eye hook and replaced hanging bar above, height 24.5in., width 34 in , depth 2 in. Note: This short and evidently early form represents the type intended to be sheathed in fabric, which would have been extended downward in a freely hanging skirt or fringe; such a fabric punkah cover is illustrated in a 1958 archival photograph of the original appearance of the dining room at Rosedown Plantation, St. Francisville, Louisiana.
