    Pic sizes are much better. Still not terribly clear or detailed enough to tell more. It could be 19th century. A better look at the interior and of drawer construction might tell more.

    I got lucky. I spoke to the owner of this piece. It turns out is an 1850 French Victorian armoire. Turns out the entire piece is like a puzzle it comes apart and you must put it back together again. Very expensive to to move or ship. However is still a very beautiful piece of furniture from the old times for whomever would appreciate it. Unfortunately the younger generation does not appreciate the stuff. She was told at auction it would sell for around $3000. What a shame.

    Its in amazing condition for a 168 year old piece. id have thought to see a little more aging. I still think a tad later,but Im often wrong. What a shame it didnt sell.
