Re: pie safe
there are drawers under the doors, looks they would hold the pie serving silverware...
Re: pie safe
This looks like a Gothic Revival sideboard, they were made from the second quarter of the 19th century through the 1930's and look far older than they really are because they were designeed to look like early European furniture made from the 1200's to the 1500's. Most tend to date from the first quarter of the 20th century and are constructed of oak. I can't tell from your images what yours is made of. We retail pieces like this in restored condition in the $500-$700.00 range.
Re: pie safe
thanks for the info...much appreciated...
anyone who may have more info, all is welcome...
on a side note...i could not find any markings indicating maker...what i do notice is those really old style nails that hold it together...
