It's supposed to have been made here in Louisiana. It belonged to my great grandmother at least back in the 1920's maybe longer.
It has been in storage for years since we moved to a condo in Metairie. I plan to consign it for auction later on.

Yes, I can appraise it and also help you place it at the right auction house at the proper sale date to help maximize the sale proceeds of the armoire.
If it's truly a Louisiana made piece, that can drastically affect the value. Also condition; if its been modified, restored or if the original finish has been compromised - all this affects value.
Establishing provenance (the origin from which something comes, the history of subsequent owners or chain of custody) can also help increase value & salability of the armoire.
If it has been in your family for 80 plus years, any receipts, photos, letters & such that
relate to the armoire are helpful. Contact me and we can discuss this further.
