You can't have this centagenarian armoire...

...unless your ceilings are at least 8'3" tall.

That should give you sufficient room to bring it in sideways through a standard door,
then tilt it up, passing through its longest dimension on the way to upright,
where it will stand tall at 7'11.75" x 51" wide x 22" deep.
(See our craigslist ad for pricing and availability.)

See how this giant makes the standard-height furniture next to it look like playhouse furniture?

Open the door, and the memory-laden fragrance of aged fir wood greets you,
taking you back to grandmother's pantry on the farm, or an old cabin by the lake.

Being around such a large, old piece gets my imagination going. Who built it? When? Where? It's not fancy, not ornate, not fine wood, but good, clear fir, finished with a dark lacquer. It's utilitarian, but the construction is finer than a plain box; there's craftsmanship and design. There's a metal closet rod; if you are tall you can reach it! There are 2 full-width drawers at the base; if you are strong, you can open them!

We don't have the full history, but this wardrobe has obviously been moved around a few times in the past century, picking up some dings and smudges along the way. Structurally, it is in great shape, and has great presence.

Where can you imagine it being used for the next 100 years?
