Antique Dresser

By julie3in1, 31 March, 2010
Description

The dresser is about 4 feet high with 3 drawers. The original finish is intact and it appears to be a "black" coating which is "crackled". Each drawer increases in size from top to bottom. The front of the bottom drawer has shrunk down with age, and now there is about a 1 inch gap. There are 4 straight legs with a cross bar. The bottom of each side has two rounded points. The back of the dresser top comes up approx. two inches and is rounded on the sides.

Re: Antique Dresser

I've done some research, and I believe the piece is American made... perhaps shaker. I believe the back is pine, but the dresser is made out of a hard wood. Each drawer has 2 pressed glass knobs.
