From Washington, she moved this piece to Georgia, then to Tennessee, to Kentucky, and then to New Mexico. Following her death, my father moved it back to Kentucky. A year after he died, I moved the wardrobe to Maryland where I live.

It's a very nice piece of antique furniture that would fit in with virtually any other decor. Like many early 20th-century pieces, the simple lines of this wardrobe goes with just about any other style of furniture. This wardrobe would make a great piece of antique furniture for someone who wanted to upgrade from Ikea or hand-me-down pieces. Even if you don't need a wardrobe (my Mom didn't use this as one), it can also function as a storage cabinet. To that end, my father made some extra shelves, which are easily removable, so it could serve very well as a storage cabinet or entertainment unit in case you wanted to place this piece in a living room, study, entry way, mud room, or a large kitchen. This cabinet has a single large, latching door, which has a round knob pull. There is a small lock, but no key.

In addition to this antique cabinet, I've also separately listed on Chairish some other pieces of my mom's early 20th-century furniture including J. K. Rishel table and chairs, a J. K. Rishel buffet, and a simple oak sideboard, so check out my other listings! See less
