    Oh brother, I certainly don't know as much as I'd like about furniture so I'm always interested in hearing more about a piece.

    Guessing based on....not much....1830-ish New England.

    Anyone else want to jump in? Is it time for the drum roll, or should we wait a bit longer (did I mention that I was a collector of old drums as well as antiques...?)
