    Wonder if it falls under Empire style.
    I would put the date to the mid 1800s.
    @verybrad to confirm

    Is that what it is?
    I thought maybe it was part of your breathing equipment. I don't like to comment on people's personal health requirements.;):smug::) (Oh look, I figured out some of those funny little faces):eek:

    Does look somewhat Empire but wonder really if this might have been a commercial store piece. Those spindles and the fluted sides of the top just don't fit sylistically at all. Mid to late 19th century or later seems about right.

    What are those 9 bottles on top.

    99 bottles of beer on the buffet, 99 bottles of beer.
    Take one down and pass it around, 98 bottles of beer on the buffet.
    ...
    ...
    ...
    10 bottles of beer on the buffet, 10 bottles of beer.
    Take one down and pass it around, [now there are] 9 bottles of beer on the buffet.

    Maybe a silly question, but does anyone else ever look at the postings here in "furniture" and think:

    "Ooooh, if I had that piece, I'd put x...y....z on it"???

    (i.e. What a cool spot to display my STUFF!)

    That's some seriously cool veneer! Do you think this had feet at one time?
