Description

I am not sure what kind of cabinet this would be called. It has relief carvings on the face as you can see and the drawer pulls are hand forged iron and the key hole covers and hinges appeared to be stamped not cast .

A few of the decorative nails that hold the hinges on are missing, but being a blacksmith myself I can forge some copies and antiqe the finish to match the originals. I also plan on forging some replacement skeleton keys for it as the original keys are lost.

If anyone can tell me anything else they might know about it or an estimated value that would be great.
