This was hand crafted in the 19th century of beautifully figured American butternut with white pine or tulip poplar secondary woods. The color and patina are gorgeous. Notice the wide boards used in construction. The overall condition is very fine with one replaced drawer support and old replaced knobs. This piece could provide handsome storage in any number of locations. It once held games in the family room, but could serve its original purpose and hold linens as well. Local delivery possible.
