Description

I'm very
pleased to offer for sale this absolutely exquisite Chinese tigerwood oak horizontal dresser and matching mirror with the following features:
46.5" wide x 19" deep x 34" tall
Fine and solid quarter sawn (tigerwood) oak throughout
Gorgeous Chinese brass hardware -- joints, pulls, and plates
Graduating drawers: one large on the bottom, four medium in the middle, and three small on top
Matching wall-mounted mirror, measures 17" x 34"
In excellent antique condition, with some minor surface scuffs and scratches, but nothing egregious or particularly noteworthy
Brought here (imported) from China likely in the 1940s or 50s
You'll also notice twenty (20) brass coins inlaid into the top of the dresser. These coins, which I presume represent a makers mark,
feature Chinese
characters
that
translate
into: sea or big lake; treasure or precious; expert or authority; and east or master respectively.
Please note that this is one of three matching pieces, the other two being a tallboy 8-drawer chest with flip-open secretary/desk and a 7-drawer tallboy chest of drawers. You can find this other item in my store!
