This is a cute yellow shabby chic styled French provincial dresser from the 1970's. I believe the mark on the back means it was actually built in 1977 so coming up on 50 years soon. I was going to paint this with a nightstand that almost had the same exact feet and curves, even the pull looked the same. But then I thought that since this was a laminate top I would be destroying the design that it was made with and someone out there might be a collector- if that's you then wonderful!
I would say in person the color of the dresser is more of a pale yellow with darker yellow in certain curves, also the yellow painted flower motifs on each drawer face adds a dainty feeling to the style.
Here are her dimensions:
Width: 49 inches
Height: 32.5 inches
Depth: 18 inches
Should know:
The dresser must not have had many owners because this piece is in really good shape other than some scuffs here and there. The inside of one of the drawers has red ink on the laminate drawer bottom - I will add that photo also.
Here's what I've done: I've waxed the inside of the carcass since that is wood.
And What I plan on doing: re-gilding one of the drawer pulls that is tarnished more than the others + If the buyer would like me to I will line the drawers in order to hide that stain with a sticky contact paper *beware that this may damage the laminate if someone wants to remove it*

The sections that are scratched are so minor and really give into the shabby chic or distressed look that the piece already had. When I was waxing the inside of the drawer lining I did noticed some of the wood missing from wear. The drawers still work like they should, but I would say in the next 15-30 years you may need to replace the wood slides in the middle depending on how rough you are with the drawers. less
