[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 3532881, member: 5066"]AHHHHHHH HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, I see now why the owner/ dealer kept the QA key escutcheons and didn't replace them with W&M as they did for the drawer pulls. They cut the molding profile to "make" room for QA hardware to fit, file this under if it don't fit, force it! I would add that the drawer pull witness marks look like QA "batwing" but the key escutcheons are more Chippendale "christmas tree" so it appears this chest had several updates to its hardware over the years.
