Golden Era Wardrobe

[MK]

This is where I keep my general attire and accouterments:

My wife gave it to me for my birthday.

Enjoy!

boy, does your wife have great taste....and I imagine that was quite pleasant lugging up the stairs

 

[Hemingway Jones]

Those drawers must be tough on your suits and hats. lol
Just kidding, that is a great piece of furniture; absolutely beautiful. Congratulations.
Oh, and happy birthday, whenever it was.

 

[Lauren]

WOW! I would LOVE to have one of those. What a beautiful piece!

Are the guts of it cedar?

 

[scotrace]

Very nice.

Great piece and very useful. Now I have something new to scout for.

By the way.............. are those tube socks?

 

[Vanessa]

Beautiful! Are you guys looking to adopt?

 

[Wild Root]

The piece it’s self is very pretty. Is it antique? As it stands, I’m not sure it’s a “wardrobe” seeing that wardrobes do not have multiple shelves. A wardrobe that I know is like a separate closet with hanging space for coats and suits. Wardrobe/Armoires are taller and are lined with cedar. It’s a great piece looks more like a contemporary antique styled dresser.

Nevertheless, it’s a beauty!

It is from the 20's.

It is from the 20's.

Wow. It's in great shape. And look at the dove-tailing on the drawers. I bet they're solid wood.

 

[Wild Root]

It is? Wow, it's in perfect condition! Your better half did very well!

I've never seen a piece of furniture quite like that, it's very nice.

Yup, it's a wardrobe. I know the bigger versions were called "linen presses" I would nearly kill for one of those, especially the ones from the 1810's. Absolutely beautiful, and these are really getting super rare.

 

[Johnnysan]

WOW...something else to build one of these days when my shop skills improve! That is absolutely gorgeous, MK. Congrats to Mrs. MK for her excellent taste in household furnishings (husband included.)

 

[Sefton]

If there was a pistol and a tobacco pouch in that top drawer Sam Spade would feel right at home.... A beautiful piece (of furniture!).

 

[Tony in Tarzana]

Sweet piece. I don't really have the room for something like that, but I may just make the room.

 

[Mr. 'H']

Lovely piece. Very pretty.

I take it the inside of this antique has been refurbished with cederwood?

Congrats.

My First Post

I bought the beautiful gentleman's wardrobe. I was shopping with my sister-in-law at an antique shop (one of those rare moments with no kids) and saw this beautiful piece of furniture. I opened it and caught my breath. "MK would love this, I replied." I asked my sister-in-law what she thought, and she thought MK would love it. So out came the plastic, and the deed was done. Two great friends of MK helped out with the delivery and shoving it up the stairs. Ironically, MK was out of town at the time and called when the piece had gone about half way up. I had fun rearranging MK's socks. The tube socks are for camping only.

Nice one Mrs. MK!
Now, if only Mrs. BT could pull this off....
