It might be a dining room piece, but I doubt it's a kitchen piece. Kitchen furniture usually has a purpose/function. You can't cool a pie inside those glass doors. There's no place to store flour, herbs, sugar or any other food item. Proofing bread is usually done around a heat source. Putting it inside a roll top doesn't make sense and wouldn't serve any purpose, as the two things you need to proof dough is heat and humidity. Neither would be provided inside the roll top. There is no place to roll out dough. There is no good place to store dishes or silverware or pots and pans.

I would guess it had a specific purpose. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense. It's not a desk, it's not a kitchen item, it's not a bedroom item. It doesn't appear to be a useful dining room item, as it can't serve as a bar, a buffet or a hutch. Maybe it's a store display of some sort.

It has me stumped.
