They stopped at Capri; saw the piece in a monastery or some other establishment, a church maybe, run by Monks who according to the story, had carved the piece. The husband had to have it, bought it and had it shipped to NYC; then to his home in Charleston. He caught his wife w/another man; killed the man; hired an attorney in Charleston/Nitro area to represent him; the trial was costly, so he pledged the credenza as payment for legal fees. My great uncle’s father was friends w/the attorney; when he was moving, my great uncle bought the piece for use in the hotel in Nitro, WV. When that hotel was to be torn down, my uncle offered the piece for sale; my grandmother bought it, and we’ve had it ever since. We think the wood is lemonwood w/handcarvings of cherubs. There are three secret compartments: one in the angel’s ear to open a drawer; two on either end. There may be mahogany on the piece as some of the wood has a distinct black cherry look.
