Are you using your phone?
Email the pictures as medium to yourself. Save them then upload from there. Use Full Image when you post.

 

Trying to upload pictures, but no luck yet. Do I hit the picture icon? Or upload file?

 

I just copy and paste from my email.
Some people say to use the landscape button.

 

Ok, added them. See original thread.

 

Ok, now go to your original post. The edit button will still be showing.
Click Edit, More Options, Full Image, Save.

The edit button eventually goes away.

 

Thanks! I appreciate the help!

 

Once more back to Edit, more options. there is a delete button. You can take out your duplicate picture.

 

You're very welcome.

And Welcome to the Board.

 

I'm not familiar with the furniture company.
It's not very often this style of furniture is marked.
Maybe one of the guys will know about the company.

As for your china cabinet - Not pie cupboard.
American Oak roughly 1890s - early 1900s.

People come and go on the forums at all hours. Be sure to check back and see if anyone comments on the company.

 

All I get is error messages when I try to open up the photos.

Cluttered's right about the function and material: china cabinet, American oak. I'd narrow it down a little and say 1900-1910. I don't recognize the maker, either, but there were dozens - if not hundreds - of furniture manufacturers across the U.S. upper midwest in that era.

Like Cluttered said, it's unusual to have a maker's ink stamp, or really a label of any sort. It usually helps in resale too, especially if the piece has not travelled far and if you can read the stamp .

 

I did find a post card with Eckhoff Furniture factory of St Louis on it. It sort of looks like the last word on your piece could be Lou...

Eckhoff Furniture, St. Louis.

Usually call these a kitchen cupboard. Ghopper is right on as far as dating. Nice that you have the crown. Many of these had them removed to modernize the look.

 

Just FYI...

Looks like the company was founded by a German immigrant and in business from the 1890s through about 1930. Through looking at receipts I located the site of the factory in what is now a very bad part of north St. Louis. Unsurprisingly, the building was demolished and is now a vacant lot, a fate that seems to have happened to about half the buildings in that area. So sad.

As you were, and happy Friday!

 

still, that's awfull brown, isn't it ?

 

The cupboard or the factory?

 

Hahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

 

Very helpful, thanks!
