Dresser

By cdh1432, 12 December, 2012
Description

I recently bought the attached used dresser for $60 that is extremely heavy but well made. The only identifying construction mark is a tag stapled to the back with the following:
 
Pacific Frames, Inc.
10201 South La Cienega Blvd
Los Angeles, CA
 
Registry # CA 19433
 
Can you please help me identify how old this is and who I might contact to find out more about the type of wood, etc.? All of my online searches have been useless.

Re: Dresser

Dressers like these seldom predate the 1970's, there are generally quite heavy because they are constructed plywood and particle board. They tend to be a mix of 18th & 19th century styles , which makes them look far older than they actually are. If you could provide better images I could probably give you an idea of wood type or finish that's been used to produce it.
