    It all appears EXACTLY the same, and it shouldn't be if hand carved
    The "lunette" carving at top of cupboard
    Ditto the "null" carving just above the doors
    Hard to be positive with photos alone but little doubt it's a revival piece.

    Yes, for some odd reason, the pictures posted sideways... that, and I’m a boomer

    Here is a period English Court Cupboard, about 1640 with some of the same carvings, "Null" & those diamond-shaped carvings are called "Lozenge", hard to see carving details with just pics alone, you really need see in person to be sure.
