    Hello All :)

    I want to sell this but don't know anything about it really. Wondering if someone could help with the wood, age, and style? I've searched but had no luck figuring it out. Thanks, in advance, for helping.

    It's walnut ca. 1880. Stripped down Renaissance Revival.

    Nice piece. I do so like walnut ! It is so warm and usually nicely grained.

    Nice one board top and interesting one board side panel.
    BTW, the house I was raised in was framed and built with walnut.

    I was thinking a some type of mirror but couldn't really picture it considering where the holes are. Never thought of small drawers, but now that I see it....no doubt :wacky:
