I have this identical cabinet. It was manufactured here in Illinois, sometime in the 40s,
I believe. (I have a friend in Southern Indiana with the same cabinet.) I have left mine in original condition; but love what you did to yours. It is beautiful.

Janice,
This piece was given to me by my cousin. When I asked her the history, she told me she thinks it’s from the early 90’s. But that’s her best guess. She purchased it from a friend for $50.
Good luck with your makeover!

Gail,
I have this exact piece from my Parents after they passed. I don’t have the heart to paint it, but maybe I will refinish it. Do you have any idea how old it is? I would love to find the age of it.
Thank You,
Janice

I think a frosted glass contact paper would be suitable for that. They probably have several options to choose from.

good luck!

I have a beautiful curved glass China hutch. I really want to put a film on the glass. In case my grandkids bump it and break the glass. At least the glass will stay somewhat intact. Do you have any idea of how I could do this?

I have this cabinet in a single door model and it’s as is when purchased by grandmother with only a darker stain. I have been questioning if I wanted to paint it and what to do with the original mirror in the back that is discolored and I’m so excited to start this project. Thank for sharing!

I’m so encouraged to see what my old cabinet can look like. I’ve been afraid to mess with it. It’s been in my family for centuries.
