[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 216440, member: 2844"]US made is entirely possible. There is also the Spanish colonial style of course, but that seems to be slightly different. When we lived in Australia in the 70s there were several Spanish furniture makers, even in specialized styles like Mallorcan. And here in The Netherlands Spanish furniture has been imported from the 60's onwards, and not just for Spanish migrants. So it could be US made or imported, maybe even by Spanish immigrants who took their furniture with them. Items are never restricted to one area, they travel the world just like we do. Steven thinks there is some age to this cabinet, and I still saw this style in different parts of Spain, including Catalunya, during visits in the 70s and 80s. I haven't been able to go there since, but I do know that a city like Barcelona is still the same hub of innovative design it has been since before Gaudí.
