Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png): 

My camera is unavailable no to take clean photos, but the pieces resemble this similarly listed item, the hutch is identical to the buffet but also has an additional hutch extension to display and store fine china, wine glasses, etc...they do have some water marks on the top, but the wood is in good condition - not warped or split. We also removed the drawer pulls and my ex-husband put them back upside-down. They could be fixed easily, but it doesn't effect the functioning so I haven't taken the time to do it.

Berkey and Gay Mahogany Sideboard/Dresser?

Posted Thu, 07/01/2010 - 5:20pm by emickdee
Category: 
American Furniture
Medium - What is the item made out of (e.g. "silver")?: 
wood
Distinguishing marks or signature (e.g. artist's name, silver hallmark): 
Berkey & Gay Branded label
Date Period (Estimated date of item if known): 
1900 or thereabouts - based on type of label
Price Paid (If known): 
$200
Size and dimensions of this item: 
42"h x 36"d x 78"w
Weight: 
100lbs+
Condition: 
Good
History: 
Purchased from a friend whose family is from Michigan
Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png): 

This is a sideboard or dresser made by Berkey and Gay, in a Gothic style. I believe based on the color and the grain patter that it is mahogany. There is a branded wood label in the side of the top drawer which makes me think it it was made around 1900 or earlier. The piece has a long wood drawer on top and a door on each side. Underneath the top drawer are 2 smaller drawers, and underneath those is a 2-door cabinet. All openings lock and have brass keyholes, and the original key is included (brass?). There is a shelf behind each door opening. The piece has claw feet in front and 2 castors on the legs in back. There is a large splat on the back of the piece, about 7" high that attaches to the top of the buffet with wooden dowels. There may have been some damage to the finish, since it has started crackling across the face and on the top. It is massive and took 3 poeple to move.
