[QUOTE="rydaokie, post: 211294, member: 4021"]Hello there, in over my head a bit. I've recently acquired a rosewood China hutch... and I simply cannot find any info on it, other then finding "new" versions of it. I'll get actual pictures of it soon to show it off a little better. But will include a picture I found on the Web of what I guess are remakes? From what I was told from the vietnam vet I acquired this from, is that he had it shipped over along with a table and chair set after his tour was over in vietnam. The differences from the new and the piece I have is the hardware , such as the one I have has options to lock the bottom doors and glass top cabinets , I don't see this in the pieces I've found online... The hinges aren't 2 flat pieces with a pin.. Instead they are what appears to be pins setting into grooves both top and bottom. It is lit, with moveable "gold" in color very thin metal. I'll get pictures of the actual piece in the morning.. I'm just trying to move it as little as possible .. Edit: forgot to mention it is a flower/bird design. Roughly 5 foot wide by 6 foot tall. And weighs probably 300 lbs or more...[/QUOTE]
