Thanks so much for this info! It helps me kind of start to research it a bit. cogar, I did search depression furniture online, and found similar styles, but nothing with these particular ornamentations. Now that I know the term "Jacobean Revival", I can discover just what that means, LOL! And as I said, I know nothing at all about antiques so I wasn't really sure where to start aside from "depression era".

This is a photo of a china cabinet my ex husband and I bought at a household sale of a neighbor about 21 years ago. At the time, we paid $40 for it. The seller told us it was "depression era".

It's been very well taken care of and has virtually no wear and tear on it, except a little bit at the feet. It's completely intact and still smells glorious inside. I can find no markings on it aside from a faded black stamp of some letters on the back. Any info would greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

By the way, I am in Pennsylvania. I honestly did try to look up this piece of furniture online, but since I know next to nothing about antiques, I am completely dumbfounded.
