[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 491308, member: 2844"]Looking at it with fresh eyes, the top and bottom look like a marriage to me. The bottom looks early 20th century, but the keyhole cover looks older. The top looks Biedermeier, 1840s-60s, but could be revival. My inexpert eye notes construction, shelf supports, and as you mentioned, thin veneer. The Jugendstil-Deco transition keyhole escutcheons put on to tie it in with the bottom. So I am now officially confused.:playful: Maybe [USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] or [USER=6444]@Jeff Drum[/USER] can tell us more?[/QUOTE]
