Wood armoire with inlaid wood. Hight = 79.5", Width = 48", Depth = 18".
This belonged to my cousin and he had owned it for about 20 years before he passed away in 2003. I'm sure it was purchased from an auction house in the Houston TX area. It does appear the back has been replaced at some point with modern a panel.
