Description

Dimensions 81" high, 41" wide, 19" deep. Single piece - does not separate into a top and bottom section. Acquired in Maine by a relative, unknown date. Side pieces are a single board, 16" wide by 81" tall. Square section cut out of the back which does not show from the front interior. Inside is painted. Glass might be original. It appears that square nails are used in drawer construction and where it is nailed through the back piece to support the shelves. Door hinges look like modern replacements. Wood is cherry?
