Wild grain, not a splotch, this was a two board glue-up. Brass latch and hinges..

And find more storage.

It has an interesting "vintage" look to it! Very nice!

Yes! Looks like a real antique.....except the "original finish" has been removed;maybe a microscope will reveal original color. It's even got an idiosyncratic base moulding unavailable at any of the big box stores...impeccable proof of age!!

Nice and different. Good work.
