35” high x 18.5” deep x 36” wide extreme solid 3 Drawer Chest... Stamped Stickley Bros. Co. Grand Rapids and a # on it 221 4 1/2
Someone bought a house in queens, ny and they were throwing away all contents
This is an antique, late 19th to early 20the century all wood chest of drawers, or a 3-drawer dresser by the Stickley Brothers of Grand Rapids, Michigan. It is branded with a burnt wood makers mark. The style is not in their more desirable Mission era oak nor Arts & Crafts era furniture. The company was founded in 1891and was active until 1954. Though Stickley is a collectible furniture maker name, these do not sell for as high as their Mission and Arts & Crafts pieces. The estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail 'asking prices' can be higher and vary.
Best to leave as-is with original finish.
Thank you
Is it best to leave as is or refinish it?
