Featured Info on dresser ( wife loved )

My wife insisted we buy this dresser set at the last estate sale we went to ( me not so much ) so happy wife happy life! Can anyone give me an idea what we got so I dont think I wasted 50 bucks. There are no markings other than drawer numbers, there are two mirrors ( one for each dresser ) Any other pictures needed let me know. BTW the second dresser is shorter but longer same style ( next to the tall one ) Thanks

 

Factory made but solid wood. Looks like legit Victorian or Edwardian or something. Just try and buy anthing new in solid wood for that price. You wouldn't even get the mirror.

 

Thanks evelyb30, I feel a bit better about it now

 

A version of American Empire, solid wood, and you got them both
for $50!!!! What Evelyn said. In Spades!

 

If I saw that here? Mid 19th. Someone rebacked the mirror and you need a nice wax on that. Cracking things.

 

Circa 1905, empire revival, American. Mixed woods, combination of veneers and solids with mahogany finish.

 

thanks for all the info all, makes me feel a little better!

 

Long after Ikea press board crap is clogging landfills,this beauty will be shining on.

 

Throw some furniture wax on her , don't forget the drawers so they'll slide, and she's ready to roll. No assembly required, and she'll probably still be usable 100 years from now.

 

I just realized you said there were 2 ! Can we see the other one?

 

Ditto! I know what it looks like, but I'd still like to see it.

 

here is the long dresser,

 

I always thought of these ,probably erroneously,as male/female dressers. How lucky you are they are both in amazing condition !

 

Lowboy and highboy. Lemon oil or beeswax and...bingo.
