<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 10011316, member: 4654"]I think this is all original and it's had the inertia removed. It may have had a slope on the fall front because inside the box it still has pieces of wood at the top to receive the wedge shape of the slope. I think it would have had Pigeon holes at the back or shelves, I think this would be worth restoring as they don't often come in Coromandel, even when this was made Coromandel was very expensive and it would be so hard to restore because all the hard bits are already there and in good shape.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
