Can you identify what this piece of furniture is?

First person to identify the use for this piece of furniture wins a 5 'er from my stash.

Hmm... I think it is used for sleeping. I win, right?

Just kidding, congrats Bill, and very cool piece of furniture.

If I'd have seen it earlier I would have guesed a comode. I would have been wrong, of course, but it's ornate and made of what appears to be quartersawn oak. I imagine it's worth a lot of money.

I thought oak at first also, but just doesn't look grainy enough to me. Ash maybe?

I was thinking moss covered 3 handled family credenza....., but way to go bilbill!

I wounder if that traveled on a ship...with someone higher up in rank or someone upper class traveling. It's oak very old.

I'm with Doc, looks like oak.
Congrats to BigBill on the win.

















I bet that thing is uncomfortable as fuck.

Even if I'd seen this in time to guess, I'd have never guessed a hide-a-bed.

That is one wayyyy cool piece of furniture!

Congrat's Bill and thanks Jamie for the contest
