I just bought this beauty, but don't know what it is. I'm hoping someone knows what piece this is and from what collection so I can research it more.

The name on the cabinet Lexington Furniture company by Dixie started to be used around 1986 to 1987. That gives you a rough idea how old this piece really is and when they changed the name of the company. At first I thought this would be listed under China cabinets but it is missing the silverware drawer that most o them have. This one is listed under display cabinets.
Thank you for that info. It should help with my search.
It seems Dixie was more or less the 'parent' company and in 1986-1987 Dixie was together with 4 companies that formed a group.
"By 1986, the Dixie Furniture Company was part of a group of four companies officially "named Lexington Furniture Industries (LFI) -- often referred to as the Dixie Family". LFI used the Dixie facility in Lexington to produce its Lexington Home Brands line of furniture."
This was the end of the group as a whole as each company changed names and went different ways.
I'm not really sure what type of cabinet you have but it looks like some sort of display cabinet.
It may not have drawers but it looks like it has pull out drawers in the bottom half.
They made a lot of bedroom and dining room furniture so I'm guessing it could have used in either room.
Beautiful cabinet.
What a Lovely piece of history you have! Here is a little more - sodafine.com/
We just inherited an identical double sided shelf/China cabinet as well although ours is in ivory with gold detail paint in the grooves. We believe its a part of the French provincial line Dixie made but cant much else online either.. have you found more info yet?
