Vintage Singer Furniture China Cabinet

Product details

Seller's Notes:This is from our Family Estate. This Singer Furniture China Cabinet was purchased in the mid 1980s and is no longer in business. It is long at a tad over 69 inches in length. It is high at 88 inches tall. The depth is 16 inches. This will display a lot of decorative plates/items. This cabinet comes in two pieces. The doors have an etched glass design with a little bevel to them. The back of the cabinets, top and bottom, are mirrored which really shows off your wares especially with the lights on. The top display cabinet has glass shelving with long groove lines in the back to display plates. There are two rows of glass shelving (divided in 3 sections for easy removal) and wood bottom which is pictured showing the button to turn the top display lights on. The bottom display cabinet has a right and left side display case with one glass shelf and a display light. It also has 3 drawers in the center which move within their glides normally. The left Chippendale handle on the first drawer is missing its pull part (pictured above), but the right handle is fine. The inside drawers are clean with no stains. The Singer Furniture label is in the first drawer. The top and bottom cabinets have display lighting which work perfectly well. Pictures above show the top and bottom cabinet lights on as displayed. The lights turn on with a knob on the brass appearing lamps at the top on the left and right side. The lights for the top cabinet have a gold tone button on the bottom shelf to push in as pictured above. The main imperfections of this used China Cabinet are the following: 1. Left Chippendale handle missing on first drawer (pictured above). Chippendale handles are replaceable. 2. The right middle door knob has a nail hole to the left of the handle. Looks as if the builder missed the mark during installation (pictured above and circled). The knobs have a little patina, but this does not deter from it's overall elegance. To be frank, I never noticed any of these imperfections until I started dusting it and I've seen this set most of my life. 3. There is a small, glass chip on the back, left corner of the middle shelf (pictures above). It is not noticeable especially with items in the cabinet. The shelf seats firmly on the wooden ledge across the back of the cabinet fine. 4. The glass shelf on the left bottom cabinet is not perfectly square as it has a cut "jog" on the left side of the glass (pictured above). This appears to be from the manufacturer's build as it is very smooth and not chipped appearing. This shelf is also nicely seated. As with any used item of this age, please expect some scratches and discoloration due to normal age and wear. Most of these issues can be improved with a stain stick. Since no one likes surprises, I'm being as detailed as I can with this item, but I hope if you like the overall appearance and can picture it in your dining room that most of these flaws can be repaired. None of them deter from it's overall elegance and charm which make it a truly beautiful display cabinet. As with the matching dining room table and chairs set also listed on Apt Deco, the family members all wanted this cabinet but none of us have dining rooms. We hope it can be useful and enjoyed by others for many more years.
