This piece I would call blonde..
All interior is the darker mahogany color of all other models I've seen online but I love the blonde/lighter coloring.. this works.. I have several records for this item all in awesome condition considering their age.. and all play..
Having a hard time pinning a good $ down as I run into several sites saying it's one model or a completely different model . So I appreciate the help with an appraisal please
I don't know much about this piece other than it's been in my mother's collection form as long as I can remember. It is solid wood with a bunch of decorative wooden parts cold parts carved on the doors and the back.. It is very heavy it doesn't have any manufacturers marks that I can tell.
