Hi, can anyone help me to identify the age, make, type of wood, etc. of this armoire? The house was built in 1874 so I thought maybe it was from the late 1800's. The mirrored section in the center does not open. There is a brass bar that goes all the way across inside with brass hooks for hanging clothes. It may have had the back replaced at some point because the wood on the inside back says things like "sheathing, roof/walls/flooring". Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you! ???

I can't identify it other than to give my opinion that it is from the Art Deco period, 1920s/30s
Thank you for trying...my first instinct was that it was Art Deco. But then after seeing some other pieces that looked similar and were labeled as Victorian, I thought maybe I was wrong. If anyone happens to be familiar with furniture from the 20's or 30's I am still interested in learning some more about it.
Thanks!
