Style and Era of Bassett Furniture?

An old fashioned dresser with many drawers.Hello, recently my grandmother passed away and I was left some furniture and have not been able to find this Bassett dresser. Does anyone know by chance what era and type of dresser this is? Unfortunately I am moving and don't have space but would like to know a roundabout value before I look to let go. It is missing a handle on the second drawer in the middle. Thank you in advance.

This can be described as a mid century modern "blonde" finish Bassett dresser. Please find a similar item priced at $510 US at tinyurl.com/2mse6vrf. I tried to find a replacement drawer pull for you, with no luck -- I think if you can find one "good enough" it will increase the value a bit.

Your dresser is usually called a mid century.
Furniture is not always a fast seller so if you're looking to sell quickly you'll probably have to list it at a lower price.
Since this will be 'pick up only' you'll have to feel your area out to see if anyone is interested in this type of furniture.
The missing pull will be a factor if someone is looking to buy it because it is a vintage Bassett. You are also missing the mirror and you did not state anything about the condition.

You can always start your listing at a higher price, accept offers and lower the price if no one makes an offer.
You could list it on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, etc

Have you contacted the furniture company. They still have a website & should have an archive. www.bassettfurniture.com/

This is furniture from the 1950s. In my area it is given away. Yours is also missing a handle. I would ask $50 and see what happens.
