<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fizzyorangejuice, post: 335162, member: 6872&quot;]So we recently got this dresser from someone on craigslist cheap as we were needing one. The more we looked at it the more we were interested in what it actually is and when it might have been made. It has hand cut dovetails and rabbits, bottoms and backs of drawers feel hand planned, square cut or stamped nails, old growth/tight tight growth rings, and a lot of warping with clumsy repairs. Bottoms of the drawers are 2 pieces. One floating panel in the front held in place by a nailed in stopper. Can&#039;t tell what wood it is made of but the faces are hard wood and supports are a soft wood. Kind of feel like poplar on those, but I&#039;m far from an expert. There definitely seems to be a lot of add ons (nail repairs, screws, et cetera) to it so that is making it difficult to date as well. I can&#039;t find any makers marks anywhere other than face marks and score lines from construction.</p><p>So, don&#039;t know if it&#039;s old, or some dude made it in his garage. Either way, we like it and it works. So any help would be appreciated.</p><p>Link to dresser album on imgur: <a href="https://imgur.com/a/z0rXk" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://imgur.com/a/z0rXk" rel="nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/z0rXk</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
