This is a fantastic oak
This is a fantastic oak Hoosier cabinet from the turn of the century (1890 - 1912 or so). It looks to have all it's original parts, including the flour bin (which you show open). Value is $800-1200. These are very collectable items for the contemporary user because they are so useful even now. This was all the Victorian lady needed for her kitchen. They had spice racks inside and canisters to hold dry ingredients that came with the purchase of a new Hoosier cabinet. Originally made in Indiana, that's why they called them Hoosiers, but many were made elsewhere too, just that name stuck. Yours looks to have been refinished to the wonderful golden oak color that it began life as.
Thank you very much!
