    My initial reaction is Edwardian and English. Could be a bit earlier but don't think as old as 1850.

    Pictures of the construction like hinges and drawer sides and interior really would help a lot. Im with Brad,and its a lovely piece indeed.

    I agree with Brad. Classically English Edwardian. A chap's wardrobe.

    Yup, just what I thought. English and Edwardian. And very useful.

    Gorgeous, Michelle. I love a bit of quality inlay.:happy:
    I'm with pewter, it could even be slightly earlier than Edwardian.
