Re: Ed Roos Sweetheart Cedar Chest

It's in the Art Deco style, some refer to these "Waterfall" after the curved top's resemblance to a crest of a waterfall. The Roos company was in business from 1916 - 1951, operating in Forest Park Illinois. The company produced these chests in all the popular styles from Colonial to Art Deco. Most furniture in this style was produced during the mid 1920's until World War II. Values vary considerably for these chests, depending on quality of construction, wood type and how close they follow original period designs.Most today sell for under $300.00 .
