Antique China Cabinet

Cabinets of this type are in what's called the "Colonial Revival" style. Colonial Revival pieces are reproductions of the original American Colonial furniture originally produced from 1620-1780 . The Colonial Revival style became popular after the first Centennial of the American Revolution in 1876. At that time interest and demand for original Colonial & Federal furnishings was so great it outstripped supply.This caused large manufacturers to begin production of pieces in the Colonial and Federal styles from the Jacobean to Duncan Phyfe. The style reached it's peak of popularity during the mid 1920's, but pieces like this one are quite modern, dating from the third quarter of the 20th century. Values for them are generally under $350.00 at auction. Lovejoy
