      A real mash-up of styles here. Not 1880's. The wooden pieces on the front of the drawers are glued on. The drawer pulls are a mix of styles. Is that a clamp I see holding on a piece of wood?

      I have a shop full of square nails and several kinds of glue. I have square nails that are actually from the 1800's but that doesn't mean the piece I use them in is that old. They just make a reproduction appear original to some people.
