This single door china cabinet features 3 removable wood shelves which have a double set of grooves for the vertical display of fine china. The top shelf is fitted with brass cup hooks underneath, to hang and display fine china cups. The oak in this cabinet is all solid with the exception of the back panel, which is oak veneer. The early glass in this cabinet is delightfully wavy. The main body of the cabinet has 4 panes of glass, with another in the door. The 2 front panes of glass are surmounted by oak dividers. The predominant style of this cabinet is Arts & Crafts, or Mission, with its plain, perpendicular lines. The feet and legs display an Edwardian trend. The lock on the door is functional and the original key has survived. There is no maker’s name in evidence. The only markings on the cabinet are some stenciled numbers on the upper rear panel. Overall dimensions are: • Height of cabinet is 59 ¼ inches. • Width of cabinet is 40 inches. • Width of cabinet top is 43 inches. • Depth of cabinet is 12 ½ inches. • Depth of cabinet top is 14 ¼ inches. • Door dimensions are 45 inches by 19 inches. • Legs are 11 ½ inches tall. • Overall Weight is approx. 80 lbs. Condition: This cabinet is generally very sturdy and in good condition. However, the front bun feet are missing all of the rounded segments, rendering them square. The front right leg facing is missing a segment of the segmented skirt which ornaments the leg just under the turned knob. The top of the cabinet displays some flecks of paint. There is also a light paint splash on the right side facing (see photo). One suspects that the room ceiling was painted with the cabinet in place. This cabinet may be picked up in Boylston, MA. We can arrange for delivery within 100 miles. Please e-mail for a delivery estimate with your location and particulars. All items are sold "as is" and all sales are final.
