Can anyone help me?

Would like to know more about this piece if possible. The knob that is on the left drawer is not original. I got it from what I was told was an early Dr's house in Spencer, Indiana.

 

To my untrained eyes it looks like a 1910-20's dresser w/tiger oak veneer.Does it have a mirror that mounts to it ?

 

I didn't see one nor any mounting holes for one.

 

There could be some tiny screw holes on the backside near the top.

 

Might be. Now that you say something there is some discoloration on the back in a curved shape. There are some holes but I thought they were too small for a screw. I can't find any markings on it whatsoever.

 

Beautiful oak veneer.

 

The undulation of the front is called serpentine. Do you have the missing pulls?

 

No. I looked a bit online and can't find the exact pulls anywhere, nor the batwing keyhole covers. Would like to find those.

 

Shouldn't there be some mark or label?

 

a lot of these were made by many different companies.....

 

There are companies that sell the knobs and pulls that you are missing. Get the Same ones, so that there are no marks or abrasions from different sizes, etc. Check similar serpentine dressers to make sure. Love the wood on this one!

 

Agree with above analysis. I think the only pull that may be original is the lower right. This would not have had glass pulls and the other is too late. Look for some filigree pulls, available old or as reproductions. Here is what a complete similar dresser looks like.

 

If I got period correct pulls and cleaned this up a bit, any idea what it would be worth? If I could find a close match mirror should I get it? Is it worth it?
