    I was so intrigued by this 64"L x 69"Hx 20"D solid wood (walnut?) cabinet that I had to buy it. The three 12'x16' cubbies on top open, but the lower front panels do not. Instead, the 16" x 43" side panels open to reveal three drawer metal filing cabinets with bronze pulls. I have searched for a similar item and cannot find anything like it. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Can you provide any information or history?

      Thanks Bobby! No, the drawer in the center does not pull. Only the top drawers open and the side panels. I love this piece, but just can't figure it out. I thought perhaps it was repurposed to accomodate the filing caninets, but it doesn't look like it. This must have come from a much nicer office than mine!!!

      This looks like some Beven-Funnnell stuff ive seen. But it reminds me also of Anglican church stuff.. hmm love it either way..
