[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 3112008, member: 5066"]Yes, typical panel construction of mid 19th century, 1850s-1860s, late Classical style, looks like Cherry, very nice for $85 I'd say. The drawer boxes are made by hand, everything else by machine. This dresser was well used as it looks like repairs to bottom of drawer runners but this doesn't hurt value. No, I wouldn't paint Cherry, too nice a cabinet wood to paint and this one has some nice figure on drawer fronts.[/QUOTE]
