Widdicomb Furniture Co Grand Rapids MI Armoire/wardrobe circa 1913

By Colleen Avery, 7 July, 2010
Description

Beautiful honey colored Widdicomb Furniture Co. armoire/wardrobe built in 1913. Original inspection/varnish and polish stamps on back of top drawer along with Original Manufacturer sticker inside of top drawer. I am not sure what kind of wood it is made out of. I have owned the piece for 17 years and it has been used as a dresser for my daughter. I stumbled across it 17 years ago at an antique flea market and fell in love with it. Very little wear and tear over the last 17 years, it has only been moved twice in 17 years. There are a few minor scratches on the top and on one side. It has one small drawer, 2 large deep drawers and 6 smaller drawers along the right side when you open the doors. On the left is an open space with a metal bar that slides out for hanging clothes. Finish is still in very good condition. It has large, round feet on it. I have searched the internet high and low looking for a similar piece and cannot find one. Very curios what the piece is worth.
