My boyfriend and I are setting up a bedroom in his house using this furniture, but would like to add pieces to it. It would be a lot easier to add pieces if we knew the manufacturer or the style name of the pieces. We have a vanity with mirror, tall dresser, head and foot board, and one side table. If you could help with any sort of identification, I would appreciate it. There are no markings on the back, under, or in or on the drawers.

This is traditional furniture. My dining room looks very similar. You should have no issues getting pieces very close to this.
The handles look like they are from the brand Huntley:
There is a similar dresser on eBay at the moment:
www.ebay.com/
Both appeal to be quite old (or really nice reproduction pieces).
It is local pick up in New Jersey so it may not be helpful for you, but it can give you an idea of what is out there.
You may never find an exact match to the pieces with all of the pretty gingerbread...because sometimes the pretty decorations were add ons or someone removed them to make them more stylish for the times.
You can probably easily mix and match with similar wood color, handle styles, and size proportionate finds.
If you find pieces that match and you are not concerned about resale value, you can buy new and modern handles for all of them so you have a more unified look.
I am a purist, so I couldn't do that ( I love the original old hardware), but I totally get the appeal of the flea market flip thing and making it more modern and matching.
Best wishes to you and your sweetie!!
Thank you for your help! I am a purist, as well, no new handles for me, or (Heaven forbid) paint! AHHHHH!!!!
