    Description

    Neat walnut spool thread cabinet with owl motif.  Piece retains its original brass pulls.  Professionally refinished and in very good condition with very minor wear; if you know our refinishing you know this piece has a smooth and even finish.  This is a Willimantic cabinet and is shown in Penns book on spool thread cabinets.  I have had this 'owl' cabinet a few times in my years in business, they made it with several variations and this is one of my favorites.  Brass pulls are impressed with the Willimantic name.  Note the intricate carvings and incising on the sides and on the front drawers---of course the owl on the back with the incised decoration is great,  Would make a great end table or night stand.  Overall 20 high, 26 wide, and 20 deep.  Certainly one of the finest of the spool cabinets of the time.   Email any day (see email address above---I normally check
    email several times each day) for any questions you may have.
    A word about condition.  Those of you who have
    purchased from me before know that I am very picky about condition.
    I will try to note anything of significance in the description.
    However, please check the photos carefully---as they say ‘a picture
    is worth a thousand words’  We will arrange shipping for you;
    our experience with large or small has been excellent and I am careful about
    who I allow to handle our pieces.  Or you are welcome to pickup any piece at our STORE IN PIERCETON, INDIANA.  Concerning payment:  With 20% as an initial payment you can
    also pay out the piece if you like, just email ahead so we can work out terms
    for that method.  Let me know if you would like additional information about
    any item.  If you have any questions, please do
