    Description

    Description
    This is a magnificent piece that was salvaged from a Philadelphia Victorian Home.
    It was originally located in the Master Bedroom as the frame to a built vanity with his and hers closets to either side.
    It is made of walnut and is painted.
    The 4 legs each have 3 ornate carved corbels and 2 turned carved columns.
    The pediments at the ends have carved crown moldings and are topped with scalloped moldings.
    The central pediment is supported by 2 short turned columns.
    There are Eastlake spoon carved flowers and vines at the bottom of the 2 central legs.
    It measures 104.75 inches wide by 108 inches tall.
    The openings at the ends are 25.25 wide by 88.5 tall to the floor.
    Central opening is 28 inches wide by 88 tall.
    This would make a great back bar or frame for a built in bookcase.
    It disassembles to load into a cargo van or pick-up truck.
    Overall it is in good condition.  There are misc. scratches and dings as it is antique. It could use a good cleaning.
    There are a couple light chips and cracks. The right side return molding is missing. Please look at the pictures carefully.

    Terms of Sale
    I accept returns only if my description is inaccurate. For example, if I pull an item from a building that I believe to be original to the house and it is later discovered to be a reproduction, or if I enter an incorrect measurement, I will allow the buyer to return the item. I describe all my items as accurately as possible with descriptions and often pictures of any damage. I try to measure within 1/8 of an inch.
    About Us
    My salvage business was born of necessity in 1993 when I started restoring an old Victorian home that had seen better days. I needed doors, staircase parts, fireplace mantles and more, so I contacted the owners of a few local buildings that were scheduled for demolition. I found and purchased all of the things that I needed for my project and lots of extra treasures which I eventually resold. 17 years later this is still my full time job! I salvage whatever I can think can be reused as long as there is room in my warehouse. The warehouse is open for treasure hunting anytime by appointment. Just contact me to schedule a day and time! Thanks for visiting.  Steve and Michelle
