<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ghopper1924, post: 2344250, member: 5170&quot;]Nice one Angela! On a sadder note, I hope the loss of the farmhouse isn&#039;t too heartbreaking. </p><p><br /></p><p>This looks to be walnut, ca. 1920s or so. I like the round &quot;porthole&quot; mirror, which is a reference to &quot;steamship moderne&quot; from the early 20th century. As far as the finish goes, Howard&#039;s Restore a Finish is a big favorite around here. You might try some on a small section of the chiffarobe and see if it gives you the desired results. It&#039;s usually better - and less work - to restore the finish rather than stripping the piece. However, if it should turn out that you need to strip it, don&#039;t worry: Many pieces have achieved fine results that way, and your piece is not above the dollar threshold where you absolutely need to keep the original finish to keep the piece&#039;s value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
