In eighteenth-century New York inventories, a dresser or an open cupboard of this type is called a pottebank (pottery shelf). For additional information on this very rare survivor, see Roderic H. Blackburn and Ruth Piwonka, Remembrance of Patria: Dutch Arts and Culture in Colonial America 1609-1776, (Albany, NY: Albany Institute of History and Art, 1988), p. 166-7.
