AAFA FOLK ART ANTIQUE EARLY 1800s ORIGINAL HAND PAINTED BLUE WOOD WALL CABINET WITH WOOD DOWELS. Up for sale is this unbelievably amazing single door cabinet. It’s a wall cabinet and is all hand painted with reddish trim and tremendous patina. It’s dated 18xx something. We can’t read the other two numbers but at the top of the door it says “18”. At the bottom we can’t read the other numbers. There are also some intials on the door, and those appear to be AJL or FJL but they are very hard to read. The door has a crack in it but hey, at this age, what did you expect? ! Underneath the door there’s a little drawer. It is a very heavy cabinet and weighs 60 lbs!! It’s heavy duty old school wood. The wood is 7/8 thick! It’s also dovetailed at the top. Along the front, there are wood dowels along the trim and you can see them in the pictures. On the front it has old hardware including rusty old iron pin-type hinges, a rusty escutcheon around the key hole (we don’t have the key) and an old rusty nail that operates as a hold closed. Inside there’s a little shelf in the middle and a cup hook shelf above. The trim is very pronounced on this cabinet including the crown molding around the top of the cabinet. The crown appears to be about 1/4 above the paint line on the cabinet. There’s also a trim around the middle of the cabinet and one at the bottom of the cabinet. At the top, the trim is cracked as you can see in the pictures. This looks like and old break to us. At the bottom there’s been a little damage to the trim on the front and both sides as the trim is light and the cabinet is heavy. The paint appears to be all original and is dry, faded, worn, rubbed, scraped, chipped, nicked, edge worn, alligator-ed and patina-ed! This is everything you’d expect to see from an old survivor cabinet like this! What a great look!! You will never see another one of these again! It’s truly one of a kind OOAK! 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!! 33 inches high to the top and 29.25 inches high to the main cabinet. 22.25 inches wide at the trim and 19.75 inches wide at cabinet. 13.25 deep at trim and. 12.25 deep at cabinet.
