This was part of an antique headboard.  The bulk of the piece could not be saved, but this is one of the parts we were able to save.

It's 36" at the bottom, and 40 at the top.  Please look carefully at the pictures.  I'm thinking it's oak based on the wood grain on the top of the piece but the carved parts could be some other kind of wood.

One of a kind piece.
I will no longer ship via Fed Ex since they have begun adding surchages that double the cost of the original label and often cost more than the price received for the item being shipped.  Ebay is unable to assist in this matter.I will no longer use Fed Ex because they have been adding surcharges that double the original shipping cost, and often exceed the sale price of the item being shipped.
