    I would like to refinish this China cabinet, however my family thinks it is an antique and I will ruin it by refinishing it. It has a date stamp on the back and that's it. No name anywhere. There are 3 shelves with small hooks that go inside. Any info would be helpful. Thanks!

      Yes it is an antique and yes you are going to ruin it.

      Right side up is excellent. I believe it is a curio cabinet. China cabinets of drawers.

      I agree with fort that it's probably a curio (curiosity) cabinet, and my vote is also not to refinish it. I like the reflection... ;-)

      I vote to leave it the way it is......has a history of patina on it. Do not refinish it

      My opinion ...
