Recently, I purchased this piece of furniture out of curiosity and haven’t had any luck identifying its function or when it was manufactured. I’m pretty sure it’s Chinese, but other than that, all I can say is that it’s a cabinet. The previous owner thought it was a potato bin, and for all I know, he might be right! ---

Um, we’re going to need a little more information, like a picture or a link to a picture or something like that. Otherwise, I’m going to say that it’s actually a Norwegian design used to store lutfisk. ---

LOL! Sorry about that! I forgot about the policy of no image uploads, so no one saw the pictures! I’ve put up a new post and have a link to the photos on imgur. It actually stores dead Norwegian Blue parrots! ---
