Re: 1910 Dresser and chest of drawers Nelson and Matter
Your furniture is 'Federal Revival' Style items, made during the first quarter of the 20th Century. Federal Revival pieces are reproductions of the original American Federal style furniture firstproduced from 1780-1820. The Federal Revival style became popular after the first Centennia lof the American Revolution in 1876. At that time interest and demand for original Colonial & Federal furnishings was so great it outstripped supply. This caused large manufacturers to begin production of pieces in the Colonial and Federal styles from the Jacobean to Duncan Phyfe.The style reached it's peak of popularity during the mid 1920's, and again in the 1980's. Demand since then has been in decline. Currently we retail comparable pieces in good condition for under $400.00 each.
