    Id guess 1870s . Looks like someone did a very thorough job of stripping it.

    Maybe a bit later ca. 1880s, but it's not that important. Late 19th century. Very elaborate, and you definitely need to complete the refinish to bring it back to it's former glory. Beautiful!

    LOVE the blind fret work on the drawers and the hardware is just as cool!
