How do I identify an antique dresser?
1 Answer
To identify an antique dresser, examine it for markings that indicate who produced it. Makers typically add brands, carvings, paper labels or metal tags to inconspicuous areas, such as the inside of a drawer or the back of a dresser. If you can locate a marking, you can use trusted online resources to figure out who made it and learn more about your dresser. Unfortunately, some antique pieces may be unmarked or have lost their tags or labels over the years. With these pieces, you can turn to a certified appraiser or experienced antiques dealer for assistance with the identification process. Find a wide variety of antique dressers on 1stDibs.
