This is actually a family heirloom. It has been in my family since it was new. However, there is some debate amongst my relatives whether we got it in the 1850s or closer to the 1880s. Honestly, I am pretty gutted about selling. But I just dont have space for it now that I am getting a new roommate.
It s a truly gorgeous piece that is both incredibly well made and also handmade, It has four drawers, all of which have dovetail joints at each corner.
It is solid wood. No veneers or anything like that. From what I understand it is either black walnut or mahogany.
It has all of the original brass drawer pulls and two original brass lock plates.
Obviously there are some nicks and scratches but given that it is almost 200 years old. it is in incredible condition.
One of my favorite features is that you can see the grain of the tree across the top. It is this gorgeous big wavy patttern that I don't think I've seen anywhere else.
Dimensions are 34"w X 37"h X 21"d
I would love for this to go to a home where it will really be appreciated, because it is an incredible piece of antique craftmanship
Many years ago we had it appraised but I am pricing it significantly lower than the appraisal because I need to get it out before my roommate moves in. Price is $475 OBO
Pickup only. I will help you carry it down the stairs if necesssary. It's not too heavy if you remove all the drawers first.
