    Picked up this dresser today, looking for a little more information about time period, manufacturer, etc... any help would be greatly appreciated!

    40s-50s conservative design, mahogany. Sold by the millions worldwide back in the day, and not worth over $100 at auction in my part of the U.S. Midwest.

    Many cabinet makers produced these, so without a label it would be virtually impossible to ascertain this piece's maker.

    On the positive side, this handsome dresser could last forever with some TLC.

    Good middle class taste at the time.

    The style is Hepplewhite, machine built bow front chest on chest and as others have said, little value these days.

    Maybe from one of the many furniture companies in Grand Rapids Michigan during the 40's. There were a lot of them.
