cedar cabinet possibly 1880s

well another day on the road this time outer western suburbs saw us bringing back a wonderful old cedar set of drawers ,the lady originally wanted $500 , but after a little smoozing we settled on $400 , it has a deep rich old weathered patina that can only come with years of use , great pearl inlaid drawer handles and brass locks ..... it does however need much work done to it , so ive entrusted it with my good friend ben from RED POINT RESTORATIONS to complete its partial restoration , he reckons about a months work so fingers crossed he can find the pieces he needs to bring this beauty back to its former glory......
