Colonial cupboard and desk at Allen House
Inside view of the Allen House in Alamance County, N.C., showing the kind of furniture and household items that would have been present when the house was occupied in the late 1700s. A tall wooden cupboard stands against the wall with dried gourds and clay dishes and jars on its shelves. To the right of the cupboard is a wooden Chippendale desk with a quill pen and inkwell sitting on top. Two dried gourds and a pair of candles hang above the desk.
