And they're the C style, same as mine. The best part - the tops and sides etc come off easy and can be moved with ease.

This is also wrong.  They are NOT C style.  C does not mean "collar".  KB prefix on the SN photo provided means "B" type which is collared, as they clearly are in the other photos.

 

PLEASE see this post:

  • KB = Klipschorn - Model Type B, "collared"
  • KC = Klipschorn - Model Type C, no "collar"
  • KD = Klipschorn - designer type

I believe OL is Oak Lacquer, and that's a beautiful, rather prominent veneer.  Note the extensive book matching in the B-style; each front panel is composed of mirror-image halves for symmetry, and the front panels are mirror-imaged with each other.  Also true of the tops, and to some extent the side panels of the top sections.
