Antique Buffet with two drawers and 2 doors

By AngelFish48, 5 August, 2019
Description

I HAVE A JOHNSON- HANDLEY- JOHNSON COMPANY, GRAND RAPIDS, MI BUFFET. IT'S  6 FT 3 IN LONG, 1 FT 10 1/2 IN WIDE, AND 2 FT 11 1/2 IN HIGH. I BELIEVE ITS OAK. IT HAS A TOP SILVERWARE DRAWER THAT IS DIVIDED AND LINED WITH GREEN FELT. A SECOND BOTTOM DRAWER AND TWO DOORS WITH A FLOWER BOUQUET IN LAY. IT DOES HAVE WHAT APPEARS TO BE A BIT OF WATER DAMAGE ON THE BACK TOP BUT AFTER CLEANING , IT'S BARELY NOTICABLE. I WAS GIVEN THIS AND THERE WAS JUST A COUPLE SMALL PIECES OF TRIM MISSING  , ON ONE LEG AND THE TOP DRAWER. IT DOES HAVE A COUPLE OF CHIPS HERE AND THERE BUT IS STILL BEAUTIFUL. ONE DOOR HAD TO BE REPAIRED WITH WOOD GLUE AND A SLIGHTLY LARGER SET OF SCREWS BUT OTHERWISE IS AMAZING. 

ANY HELP  WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!! THANKS AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!

I WAS GIVEN THIS BY A DAUGHTER THAT WAS CLEANING OUT THE 1869 SCHOOL HOUSE, IN NORTH ADAMS, MI, THAT HER MOTHER AND FATHER LIVED IN . HER MOTHER HAD GOT IT FROM HER MOTHER WHO PURCHASED IT NEW. THE KIDS ARE REDOING THE SCHOOL HOUSE AND DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FIXING THE BUFFET AND GAVE IT TO ME TO CLEAN UP AND TEND TO ANY THING IT MIGHT NEED TO SELL IT. THEY JUST WANTED TO SEE IT BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS AND ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE PICTURES I HAVE SENT THEM!!
