Free Standing Kitchen Island Old Shop Counter, France circa 1880
About the Item
This old pine shop counter has been given new life with the addition of a new top which is made from old boxcar flooring (from a train). Thick and heavy, the top is filled with gouges and stains from years of use in train yards and provides a wonderful contrast to the counter base below.
Now sanded to a smooth surface, the imperfections of the top add to the deep character of this one of a kind free standing kitchen island or counter.
Note the striking grain of the panels, accented by carved acanthus and metal trim.
The overhang on counter side that allows stools to be pulled up/under, with floor to skirt height at 34.25"
The reverse side reveals open shelving ideal for easily accessible storage.
Restored, strong and ready to be placed and used.
Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition and details. All scratches, dings, cracks etc. reflect generations of use and do not impact the function of this impressive island.
