Antique Dresser Chest Mirror

By heyoldstyle, 25 July, 2022
Description

Chest, Dresser, Headboard, and Mirror from somewhere around 1930-1950. Solid, I believe Mahogany. 

Category
Furniture
Medium
I believe it's Mahogany.
Distinguishing marks
Some ornate designs. Many of the original drawer pulls broke over the years. I bought replacements maybe 20 years ago. They were not great and broke so I put the ugly white knobs on just so we could open the drawers. The mirror is really cool.
Condition
Good
Size and dimensions of this item
Headboard 41" x 57"; Dresser 46.5' W x 36" H, depth from 18-22'; Chest 53" x 37.5" x 21"deep
Date Period
1940s
Weight
Very heavy
History
My grandma bought this new after she was married in 1941. It was in her house as her main bedroom set until she passed away in 2003. I used it from then until 2017 then it's been stored in our attic since then. There is glass on top of the chest and dresser. When we took it out of her house, the original receipt was in the top drawer-it's since been lost, but I do remember the price was in the $500 range. I'd be interested in selling it to someone that would get good use out of it.
Price Paid (If known)
550

Bedroom Set

I'm interested if anyone can tell me more about this bedroom set. If I sell, what would be reasonable to ask for it? Thanks
