Wooden Chest of Drawers

Profile picture for user Lovejoy
By Lovejoy, 9 September, 2018
Accurate Description of Item
One 1950's French Provincial Dresser
Appraiser Remarks
Your piece is in the French Provincial style, which has gone through a number of revivals since its original inception in the mid 1700's, it seems to go through periods of popularity about every 30 years or so. The latest revivals date from the 1930's, 1950's and again in the 1990's, this one appears to date from the 1950's. Furniture in this style was made in both Europe and North America, the European exmples tending to be hiogher quality and closer in design to the originals. Currently the style is not in vogue and values for pieces like this remain modest, close to what your paid for it in the $500.00- $800.00 range.
Estimated Value
