GORGEOUS Antique Cartographer Map Maker Oak Library Cabinet Multiple Compartment

  
Thank you very much for stopping by! We are very proud to offer a gorgeous all-original mapmaker's wooden cabinet in great condition. American, circa mid- to late 1800's. This great piece stands 65 inches tall, 40 inches wide and a slim 15 inches deep. Excellent multi-compartments throughout and a great utilitarian piece.

On either side are slats on long hinges that are secured by the lid on top lift the lid, swing the slats out and that frees up all the doors to open--swing the slats in and secure them with the closed lid and the compartment doors are secured shut. There is a lock mechanism on the lid; a key is missing and could very likely be replaced. In the meantime, it is unlocked so there is no problem accessing the cabinet. There are also two felt-lined rests/desks that slide easily in and out. A wonderful age-appropriate patina throughout.

One of the brass plates for a drawer has come loose and can be very easily remedied with a small screw. Otherwise the piece is rock solid, heavy (it's a two-person job to move it). It has holes beneath the legs to fit casters.

We found no signs of structural damage or repairs. Varnish appears to be original to the piece--so 100+ years old. Depending on your location from San Antonio, Texas, it will take as little as a couple of days to as much as a couple of weeks to identify a driver and secure a reasonable rate to have this delivered.

We have used this service many times before and we and our customers have been 100% satisfied. If less, we only charge the actual amount the driver charges us. Again, thank you for looking.

This really is a great and rare piece. We look forward to answering any questions you might have.
