[QUOTE="GarageSpace2024, post: 9761964, member: 86085"]This place is awesome! A few hours later and already starting to piece this mystery together. I appreciate everyone's assistance thus far as it has led me down some search rabbit holes and I was armed with questions that have assisted as well. 1. The previous owner replaced the PERFECTLY GOOD beveled mirror glass with clear glass (killing value) 2. My searches around those terms led me to Walnut Louis XV Style Armoire. While not as ornate as much of what I see in searches, it's also not at bland as some.. so I assume a sorta "middle of the road" minus any glaring identifiers. I started trying to assemble what I could to get an idea of what it looks like. It's missing hardware so I can't keep it together, but am trying to place the drawers on these little blocks in each corner and they might actually fit. The craftsmanship doesn't really match the rest, but it may just fit behind the doors as suggested. Keep the advice coming! This may end up with an exact build date and who was running chisel duty that day. Ha!
