Help identifying a wardrobe or armoire

    Hello,

    We inherited this wardrobe or armoire from my husband's family but have no idea of the age or provenance. Any help appreciated!

    The inside is empty apart from the pictured hooks - no signs of ever having had shelving or rails.

    We're in Edinburgh, Scotland.

    The hooks were for hanging your clothes on.

    Would go more with a late 19th century date with that Eastlake hardware.

    Edwardian English wardrobe. That hardware was common English fare for the period ad used right through the 20s/30s and 40s... and the triple hook swivels 360 degrees.
