Help finding this dresser + chest set (photo included) or similar options
Need help for chest/dresser to match!
Dresser/Chest of Drawers than can be repeatedly assembled for apartment life?
1910 matching set; chest of drawers and dresser. Nelson and matter furniture co.
Most Grand Rapids furniture is not considered antique as it was not hand or bench made but rather produced on an assembly line. It is mostly veneer - not solid boards, if drawers are dovetailed, it's machine done? At an estate sale these pieces might sell for as much as $150 each.
More on reddit.comWhat is a dresser vs. a chest of drawers?
Some resources will tell you that a chest is tall while a dresser is shorter and wider, or that dresser drawers are deeper than a chest’s drawers. In the real world, the names are often used interchangeably, so focus on the essentials of the piece, like its dimensions and how many drawers it has.
Before I make a purchase, how should I measure for my dresser or chest?
For exterior measurements—
- Depth: If you need space to walk between your dresser or chest and your bed, measure between the wall and the edge of the bed. Leave enough space for your dresser depth PLUS at least 12 in. of open space for walking.
- Height: If you need to squeeze storage into a smaller room, choose a tall ches. If you want to hang a mirror, a piece of art, or your flat-screen TV over your dresser, go with a shorter double dresser.
- Width: Chests or dressers that are the width of a single drawer are great for smaller spaces. If you have plenty of floor space, choose a six-drawer or even nine-drawer dresser and leave your wall free for photos or décor.
Where should I place my dresser or chest when I arrange my bedroom?
The most common placements we see in bedrooms are across from the foot of the bed, on a wall parallel with the side of the bed, or in a corner of the room. You can even substitute a small chest for a night table if you need storage space right next to your bed.
Dressers and chests aren’t just for bedrooms; you can place them in entryways, at the end of the hallway, or behind your living room sofa.

Hey everyone,
I’m hoping someone here can help me out!
I broke my dresser and want to replace it—along with the matching chest from this bedroom set (photo attached). The bed frame is still in perfect condition, so I’d love to keep everything cohesive.
The set has a brushed champagne/gold tone with mirror accents and a tufted headboard. I believe it may be from Acme Furniture or something similar, but I haven’t had any luck finding the exact dresser and chest available anywhere.
If you recognize the set and know where I can find the dresser and chest (new or gently used), I’d really appreciate it!
Also—if you have suggestions for other dressers and chests that would match this bed frame well, I’m open to alternatives too.
Thanks so much in advance!
