Chinoiserie refers to the decorative artwork on the case !!  Looks like a German or Swedish design from what I can see in these pics !!  Can we get some close ups !!  Its a very nice piece !!

Antique Questions Forum / What is this furniture piece?

« on: March 03, 2013, 04:26:21 pm »

This piece of furniture was given to me by a family member but neither one of us know much about it. It was originally in my grand parents house. I have been told it is called a chinoiserie. I would like to know what it actually is, where it might have come from and the date that it may have been made. I have done some extensive research already but I have not been able to come up with much if anything that helps me.  It is a very nice piece that I want to display in my home. Any information that someone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
