This combination of dresser, mirror, and two identical night stands was issued by the Detroit Furniture Distribution Company, Inc. in the mid-to-late 1960's. Let me be clear about this: I LOVE THIS FURNITURE. There is positively no room for it in my new digs, but it is wonderful and I hope that you will be able to incorporate it into your home with the same loving reverence and hushed sense of wonder that I once did.
Or, you know, at least give it a rub-down with some Murphy's once in a while.
The dresser also serves as a vanity when the matching mirror is placed atop it, as pictured above. The left side of the dresser features adorable little accordion doors to keep your delicates and unmentionables hidden from common view. The top of the piece is an excellent place to store decorative cosmetic or perfume bottles, jewelry, board games or all of the books you've been meaning to read before bed. The drawers on the right side of the dresser are deeper than those on the left side.
Measures 68"L X 19"W X 32"H.
The matching night stands are rather adorable, but also practical: offering not only drawer space but a respectable amount of cabinet real estate. The shelf created by the space between the shelf and the drawer is a perfect haven for tissue boxes, aromatic candles (use responsibly, don't burn the house down) or that last glass of water before lights out - use a coaster for authentic 1960's charm! (Also because you should always use protection. C'mon.) Measures 21"L X 21"W X 25"H
Dresser: $100
Night stands: $50 each
Buy the set for $175
I'm moving out of state on September 9th, so everything is priced to move, and all prices are open to reasonable negotiation. AND I'll give away a free book with every purchase! Contact me at amebug@yahoo.com for more information.
Thanks, and happy shopping!
