Wondering who made this dresser and its age etc. No decernable marking on it and the mirror posts are topped with carved corncobs and bamboo looking sections circling the height of the posts. Small old metal casters are on the legs and our guess is 1880's
The wood on the mirror posts almost appears ebony but probably with stain of somekind. We have been unable to locate anythnig about this piece etc and are curious as to its origin, age and value. We will poat a close up shot soon. Please and thank you!!!
A regular image and one close up of it may be seen here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22909222@N04/5703809297/in/photostream
