Aafa Early Antique Folk Art Wood Original Survivor Cabinet Cupboard Chippy Paint
AAFA EARLY ANTIQUE ORIGINAL SURVIVOR CABINET CUPBOARD DRY WHITE CHIPPY PAINT. Up for sale is this fabulous old primitive cabinet or cupboard. It’s a nice tall and deep cabinet. It’s a large, solid, old four-door cabinet with two doors above and two doors below. The cabinet has beautiful white/chippy paint. It’s tall and very attractive with alligator / crackled paint. This old cabinet is a survivor. It has old square nails in the backs and sides as we hope you can see in the close-up pictures. Not all nails are square as a few were probably added over the years. There are some shiny round nails in the trim piece at the bottom on the front. This trim may have been added as it looks newer than the age of the cabinet. The cabinet leans back, and as you can see in the pictures of the bottom, we used a board to shim the back portion up and help it from leaning back. The doors work nicely and there are old porcelain latch knobs on the doors. The lower right doorknob is broken and easily falls out. We were able to wedge it in there for the pictures but another picture shows it out and separated from the escutcheon. Also, a couple of the latches don’t latch, meaning that they don’t hold the doors shut. We used a small piece of cardboard under the doors to keep them closed, you may want to do the same. Not all of the porcelain knobs are the same as you can see in the pictures. Theyre old and a need a little care during use. It’s a wonderful dry wood, white in color with old worn paint. The paint appears to be all original and is dry, alligator-ed, worn, rubbed, scraped, chipped, nicked, edge. The inside looks all original with great patina! The inside is old boards. The shelves have some paint on them and lots of patina from the years of use! The back is all original and made out of three large boards and square nails, rosehead type nails with other rusty nails too. This is everything you’d expect to see from an old survivor cabinet like this! What a great look!! The hinges are rusty, heavy duty pin / shaker-style hinges. At the top of the cabinet, it has a crown molding type top. We don’t know the age or origin of this cabinet but we do know that it’s special!! Please see photos for accurate detail and description. The pictures are pretty good for the color, especially the close-up ones. It’s a great old cabinet/cupboard!! The cabinet measures 77″ H x 46″ W x 17 D. We can also recommend a couple of shippers.
