Help identify an American piece

American? by mdahya posted Jan 25, 2021 at 8:49 AM

Hi all.

We have a two chest of drawers which we think are American.

Unfortunately that's all we know as there are no markings at all.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

 

This should be in FURNITURE.......... @daveydempsey

& Any photo's would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks Davey - have added a photo. Not sure how to move the post?

 

Not much to go on here with just the one pic but does look to be American, 1970s or later.

 

Thanks for that... makes sense as all the three prices (dressing table, chest and two sides) are much bigger that what we would used to hear!

I've uploaded some photos of the dressing unit.

 

My parents had living room furniture with that spotty finish. I don't know what it is but they called it "pecky pecan". They bought it in the 1970s.

 

I believe it’s called “fly specking” , a popular finish in the 70s where small specks of black paint were applied to simulate aging. Rather unsuccessfully I’d say.
