Antique Questions Forum / Hoosier cabinet
« on: June 21, 2011, 03:46:13 pm »
Greetings! This is my first real post. I recently inherited this from my mother. She was a lover of classic roses, books, and antiques.
This Hoosier was in our house for many years, long before I was born, and I've always wanted to know more about it. It doesn't appear to be in the best shape as it is. I don't believe it is complete. I know that the flower bin is intact and all the drawers are accounted for. The backing appears to be missing however. I am unsure of the manufacturer or the date of manufacture. I am hoping that someone on the forum is kind and knowledgeable enough to give some insight. I would like to know about how much something like this would be worth.
The top section appears to be clamped to the bottom half and I believe the table top is some sort of enamel. I believe the stained glass pieces were made for my mother by a friend.
Any help is much appreciated!
