1950s 6 drawer bureau

By LJC2020, 21 October, 2012
Description

I recently purchased a very heavy light colored (maybe blonde mahogany) 50's? era bureau, dimension 48" tall by 46" across.  It is in close to pristine condition but I'd like to know more about it.  It has six drawers, the top three are hidden behind two large panels that have "scribble" design metal pulls that open to reveal them.  The top three drawers on the interior also have removable glass panels that are in the center of each drawer.  The entire center of the piece angles in towards the middle.  At this point, I haven't found any identifying marks but can't really lift it further to see underneath.  This was an estate sale find that I thought had some great character.  I paid $100 for it and because I love it, I know I got a steal.  Thanks in advance.
