I have an old dining room cupboard that I inherited from my grandfather. It is older than a 100 years. It is definitely hand made. I am not sure which wood it is made from. It also has leaded glass. It is about 180cm in hight and 150cm in width. Can you help me with determining its value?

Yowsa! So pretty! If it is handmade valuing it will be so dependent on where you are located and if you can get it into the right sales format. I would think a furniture auction would fetch the best value. Put a reserve on it for the minimum you want for it. Not eBay, a real bidding auction with a caller, in person.
Furniture value is very fluid and varies to town and city to city. Get a few bids from auctionaires so you get the most!!

This is a great piece! We need to know more about it! Does it have serial numbers, item numbers, company logo, type of wood. If you do not have that info, you could take more pictures and present to a antique seller/dealer. Because they specialize in this, often they can tell from pictures, and also how to care for the piece!
This almost looks like an old antique dry sink that they placed a bowl of water on and a pitcher on. My dad had one that looked almost like yours and they were mostly in bedroom from what I remember. In many cases the person who made these did not sign them or even mark them.
