Well...it's better at a distance than it is up close! LOL! It has been seriously clobbered....modified... the lower panels are fir plywood....certainly not original....perhaps thost doors also held glass? and the inside bottom has had stuff added....the hunges are not original....nor are thoses wrought iron clasps. It was a nice country cubbarD....not walnut but perhaps poplar... unfortunatly I don't know how you would un do what has been done. Lindqa C

That would be a French Vitrine (curio cabinet) with a Vernis Martin finish.. kind of that golden "frosty" type finish. The legs are classic. Date wise, I would guess around 1900-1915, but could be a decade or so older. They CAN be quite valuable... 3-10,000 for a decent piece, however, the condition is pretty... well... it's rough! You're correct in not replacing the glass, especially if you still have the piece that is broken out. I can't even imagine what it would cost to replace. There are things you can do to prevent further deterioration, however, that would be only if you plan on keeping it for personal use because it WOULD diminish it's value. Insure it? That's a judgement call. In good condition, insuring it for 3-5,000 would be fair.

It's "furniture store furniture" not likely to find any maker's name. As has been said, 1930's. Looks like mahogany...nice useful piece. Worth? What someone will pay...perhaps $150....$180?

Yeah, I was thinking that it's low end but it had enough dust and filth on it to be 100 years old, gross! I haven't seen anything like it in my online searches so I couldn't figure out what "style" it was. Thanks for the help guys.
