Accurate Description of Item
One Late 19th Century Continental Armoire
Appraiser Remarks
Most of these European pieces with large mirrors tend to be late Victorian examples. Most originate in France, but comparable "Knock down" Armoires were also made in the UK. Such pieces were necessary in older homes, as most did not have built in closets and moving such large pieces required that they be made in several sections. Values for them vary by condition style and size. We currently retail comparable pieces in the $1000.00- $1500.00 range.
