Diminutive jelly cupboard with hinged door opening to reveal a fixed shelf, which separates the interior into two sections of storage (ca. mid-late 19th Century, New England, USA).
Metal hardware is a later addition (ca. 1940s/50s), as is the layer of light blue/green paint (top layer is worn in an attractive crackle pattern revealing the original blue color beneath - back retains original blue paint).
The yellow vinyl surface had been previously added via metal tacks in order to conceal largely unfinished wood. It can be removed, but the surface has large swaths of missing paint.
The overall look is naturally and desirably distressed, with paint loss and wear commensurate with age.
