<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 9440909, member: 37"]Was on my phone when I replied above so couldn't see pictures well. Very nice find and curbside is amazing! This is pine and has all indications of being late 18th to early 19th century. It does not have the refinement of a piece built in a cabinet shop, so likely a country piece. Condition and patina seems to be very good. I would do nothing beyond cleaning and a coat of paste wax. Would like dimensions and a shot of the entire interior. Also, where was this found? Seems that similar, with Chippendale bracket feet such as yours, were often from New England.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one the seller dates to circa 1790.
