    When it comes to the style, I'm fairly confident it's neo-renaissance. Maybe italian or french, (swedish, even german). Somewhere between 1870 and 1905. Likely 1880s or 1890s.

    The bottom half reminds me of bedside washstands I've seen, but probably has nothing to do with them.

    It is Victorian circa 1890. Likely English in origin and can see the Italian renaissance influence mentioned by bluemoon. The wood is oak. I am guessing this is a liquor cabinet but could see it for other purposes, depending on how it is configured inside.

    Thanks, so much - I really appreciate it! You're great. We're currently using it as a liquor cabinet, in fact, so I'm happy it's still being used for its intended purpose.
