<p>[QUOTE="CarolynC, post: 10045355, member: 89305"]This is my first post. I hope I am providing info ok. I put details on the photo descriptions.</p><p>I bought this some years ago before seeing it in person and feel like it may be older than the 100 I was told. It is 44W x 42H x 22D. Smooth grain wood with much patina. Drawer bottoms are half width pieces of wood with a center strip. Bottom side is rough, maybe hand planed? Back is similar. Extreme wear to the drawer runners/bottom edges, and replacement plywood for the two small drawer bottoms and the wood top, on which the 3/4" marble slab sits. Strangely replaced drawer pulls and lock escutcheons, which are sideways so the locks can't work. Lock has flat head screws. I can provide more/better pics if helpful. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would love any thoughts on its age, likely history...I am not expecting much value, given its wear and what little I know of the market. Thank you!</p><p><br /></p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12259]front by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12263]drawer pulls by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12268]Top by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12262]front of drawers by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12260]drawer back edge by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12261]outside drawer bottom by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12264]drawer side by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12266]inside drawer by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12265]interior by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY]</p><p>[GALLERY=media, 12267]lock by CarolynC posted Nov 12, 2024 at 10:37 PM[/GALLERY][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="CarolynC, post: 10045355, member: 89305"]This is my first post. I hope I am providing info ok. I put details on the photo descriptions. I bought this some years ago before seeing it in person and feel like it may be older than the 100 I was told. It is 44W x 42H x 22D. Smooth grain wood with much patina. Drawer bottoms are half width pieces of wood with a center strip. Bottom side is rough, maybe hand planed? Back is similar. Extreme wear to the drawer runners/bottom edges, and replacement plywood for the two small drawer bottoms and the wood top, on which the 3/4" marble slab sits.

I would love any thoughts on its age, likely history...I am not expecting much value, given its wear and what little I know of the market. Thank you!
