Fortunately, it was exactly what was needed to hold a large collection of heavy stoneware pottery in a small kitchen.
The interior was sanitized, and painted black. Torn brown paper was attached with wallpaper paste to the panels. The trim is painted with the same satin finish as the interior.
The original hardware was refinished in gold tone. It still locks with a cabin door hook.
An empty corner of the kitchen now holds over 200 pounds of stoneware dishes, and serving utensils.
And...maybe some lollypops.
