About the Item

Pair of Streamlined Art Deco Dressers, designed by Donald Deskey, American, circa 1930s. They retain their original espresso brown color finish in very good shape. If you prefer, we can refinish them in your choice of color for an additional charge. Please reach out to us if you are interested in refinishing them. They are a versatile size and can be used pushed together or separately. They would work well as chests or dressers in a bedroom, or as a credenza, cabinet, or bar in a living area. Each dresser measures 44" width. Please see our other listings for a pair of matching Deskey nightstands and headboard from the same estate. Please note this listing is for the pair of chests only.
