[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 68951, member: 57"]"Any ideas what it might be for?" No idea but I love it!!! How very practical that tambour front is. In terms of practicality, if the box were placed quite high on a tall chest or shelf to keep "little hands" from getting inside the box, the tambour opening on the front would allow even a short(er) adult to stand on tiptoe, extend an arm/hand, and retrieve an item from within without having to get a step stool or ladder to reach the box. ;) :happy:[/QUOTE]
