<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Planetree29, post: 2309268, member: 15460&quot;]Hello&nbsp; all, I picked this up yesterday and hope someone on the site can help with identifying characteristics and possibly age for me. My assumption is that this piece is mid 1800&#039;s, pine and American Empire but I need verification. There are two turned 1/2 columns on the front, a scalloped shirt with block feet. It is 42 in. high, 44 inches wide and 20 in deep. There are two shelves ( mismatching) inside. </p><p><br /></p><p>Dove tailed joints, wooden nails, some flathead style iron screws here and there. Door latch appears to be wrought iron and turns to release the latch.</p><p><br /></p><p>The most curious details are two heavy iron handles attached to the back. We were told this was for lifting but that makes no sense at all.</p><p>The drawer has a lock with on key. Could this drawer have been sugar storage?
