Fun and function abound in this free standing pine kitchen island with 24 drawers. This delightful pine apothecary originally served as a shop counter or storage cabinet. Counters similar to this were used throughout shops in the European countryside during the 1800's, and are a great find today as a way to incorporate old world charm and craftsmanship into a modern home. Since it is free-standing, it would be ideal as a kitchen island (raising it up is simple to do), but also perfect for a quilter, crafter, to use in a bathroom as a large vanity; the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. This pine counter ready to be used as it has been professionally restored, all drawers run smoothly and it has been given a wax finish. Any nicks, scratches, distress and signs of wear are due to generations of use and do not detract from the beauty nor function of this pine apothecary.
