Description This is a very large pie safe that dates from the 1800's or earlier. The exterior as well as the shelves (two on each side) and the back are made of walnut. The tin is a bit uneven in some places and there is some slight rusting as well. It appears to have been made by hand, as the legs and tin are just different enough to indicate that they were not made by machine. Everything seems to be original, except the latch on the right door. The original milk paint is still visible in some places. There are keyholes on booth doors, but the hardware is missing.

History My grandfather knew an elderly widow who left this to him when she died. She was born in the 1880's and we know that her grandmother brought it to Tennessee from North Carolina. We don't know if it was new when she got it or if it had been in her family already.
