John Widdicomb 5 pc Bedroom Set

By Birdie5611, 6 October, 2021
Description

5 piece possibly mid-20th century or older bedroom suite. Queen headboard, 2 matching nightstands, armoire dresser, and triple dresser. All in great shape with very few marks (note the night stand pictured has a few scrapes on it but the other one has none). It was purchased 35 years ago from an estate sale for $2,500.  I'm not sure of the actual manufacture period.  I'm looking to sell this as a set if possible but have no idea it's value and apparently there is no one in my area that does appraisals on it that I've been able to find, even though I live in the city where the furniture was made.
