Need help identifying this cabinet I found last year next to my apt's dumpster (heck yeah I grabbed it). My first guess was a liquor cabinet. Will take more pics if I need to, but I can say that I haven't found any kind of identifying label or tag:
DAMN nice thing to find in a dumpster! Congrats!
Canarble Cabinet?
I thought it was nice... as you can see in the pics, I haven't touched a thing, as far as trying to fix it up.
I have no idea what a canarble cabinet is, honestly, so I dunno... lol
It is a mystery to me.
Oh man! That's the HAUNTED CABINET!!! Get rid of it now!! It ruined my life!
In that case... eBay here I come.....
It's way cool!
As to "Canarble," here's the story, and probably a radio show you should listen to after Rush! :-)

LOL... bookmarked ;)
You WILL enjoy. Hannity and Medved are okay, but the Roe Conn folks are by far the most fun to listen to in the afternoon. My workday just whistles by!
What is that?
I watch ARS from time to time
It looks very similar to something that would hold telescope eyepieces. Telescope eyepieces commonly come in three barrel sizes, .965 inch, 1.25 inch and 2 inch. Your round holes are much too big, but that was all I could come up with. :)
BTTT
You think this was a specialized cabinet? It even crossed my mind that it might be a sewing cabinet.
Doesn't make sense for a liquor cabinet, unless it was for show only. The top would close onto the tops of the bottles.
..I can't figure this thing out.
That is an antique Amish missile launcher.
Well it must be worth mad money to Korea.

Looks like there's a circular liquid stain or two from a bottle on the bottom shelf:
Compare its basic form against this "Vintage Japanese Liquor Bar Cabinet" or even this antique Chinese liquor cabinet in black lacquer.
As to price, here are some current eBay auctions
That's my apothecary cabinet from Pottery Barn!
