Thank you! Yes, I feel very fortunate to have such a beautiful piece! I'm the type that gets bugged if I don't know the provenance though
Yes, I wonder too about its original price - you would think that it would be expensive due to the detail, but then it has a very very basic set of casters. I'd say either they're not original or the piece is fairly old (but then it has an Art Nouveau influence which puts it at the turn of the century). Or possibly not from U.K./USA but somewhere with a more rustic style of cabinetry. I wish I at least knew something lol
