This piece is from the 20s-40s, Art Deco period, and is called a vanity or dressing table. From the look and size of yours it may even be called a dresser vanity or even a man's dressing table.

• Yours is a little unusual as it seems to be higher than most styles. Many styles are lower in the middle and have a matching chair or stool.
• Some of these can command a high price but that would have a lot to do with the condition also.
• You can Google vintage or art deco vanity or dressing table and see many similar pieces. Some will be reproductions (new) as these are still popular.
