    Purchased in 1998 as an investment. Lately I have been trying to find a pic on the web with no luck. Stands a little over 6 feet tall, and is very heavy. Wonderful space saver because inside top and bottom are shelves where quite a bit of items can be stored and in the center is a very spacious drawer.

      Nice piece!

      The overall appearance and hardware are 20th century-- I'd put this in the 2nd quarter, 20th century and ALMOST antique.

      Scott, I'm thinking maybe 50 yrs earlier, but then, we are just dealing with pix with no construction details.

      Welcome to CW,,,AntiqueArm
      Strangely maybe for you, a nice picture from the back will help, and some cornice shot also from the back, under and sideway drawer shot to, you can do another post and title "Part II" for doing additional pictures, a picture a the locking system will be very helpful to, no dough.
      It's really to bad the someone have clean this wood really at the extreme.
      Thanks for sharing this nice piece of furniture.

      Regards

      Does this take down with fitted joints & wedges ? I live where real antiques are the norm. & have actually never seen one that doesn't take down with wedges & a few common tools.

      Drop pulls and legs are typical of the period that I cited.
