Description: Faux bamboo birdseye maple Victorian dresser attributed to
R.J. Horner, NYC. It has an original thick beveled mirror (some minor
silver loss) surrounded by a wonderful frame with an open work bamboo crest.
Faux trim moldings decorate each of the four drawers, mirror, side panels
and frame of the chest - typical of the design used by Horner. Each drawer
has a faux turned bar pull. The chest has the original turned knobs that hold
the mirror to the frame. The surface of the chest shows a darker spot in
the middle back where the veneer has partially worn off (see photo). A very
lovely example of this aesthetic designed style of furniture!
