The armoire was originally designed as a media unit and later transformed into a storage unit. The antique pine is beautiful and the piece has lovely Country French style detail. We are moving and cannot take the armoire with us. It measures 45 inches wide across the crown molding (top) and 41 inches wide through the body and at the base. It has 5 shelves and the shelves are 22.5 inches deep. It holds a lot!
