Provincial Hanging Shelves With 3 Drawers
#A143PP. Circa 1850. Italy. These charming shelves probably hung in the kitchen of a cottage in the Italian countryside.

The unit hangs from 2 hooks attached to the back of the top shelf. Tis piece is strong and sturdy. It has some minor warpage, water stains, dings, scratches, and old repairs commensurate with age, all adding to its beautiful patina. Some replacements to the insides and back of drawers. 36" wide x 35.5" tall x 7.5" deep. $750.00.
