<p>[QUOTE="silverthwait, post: 86466, member: 103"]That thing looks as if it would hold up a goodly shipment of gold bars! What is that green part? And why are the doors different? As to terminology, it is low, and therefore a cabinet as opposed to any of the others, which usually allow one to stand while reaching for the pickled tongue. Probably late teens, twenties. I have dining room furniture from that era. When people ask, I tell them it's post-war.
