I just bought this dresser on a resale site to redo for my bedroom. It has dovetail drawers and has been painted and chipped by previous owners. How old is it?

Bassett Furniture Industries Mid-Century Modern Dresser
While there is some debate over the exact year of origin, most can agree that this style dates back to the mid-1930s through to the mid-1960s.
I believe the original color may have been a shade of yellow but some have said the color was called lime or limestone.
It's possible this was similar in color ' notice this is described as Mid-Century Modern.
