I am wondering what this is and its value.

It looks like a dresser. Look underneath, on the back and in the drawers for markings, so that you can identify the manufacturer.
To me it looks like a burl wood, empire style dresser...probably a woman's vs. the taller man of the house version.
I always consider them to have an oriental flare to them, but since this isn't my style of furniture (I am more a mid century modern, clean lines and art deco fan), I haven't studied a lot about this style, this is just how I always thought of these kind of pieces.
I know in some places these type of pieces still command high values at antique stores and auctions.
I would recommend having a trusted antique dealer look at it and confirm if it is a real piece or a modern reproduction.
Please post back what you learn! This is a neat piece and even though it is not my personal style, I love learning about all things furniture!
Hi,
This looks like it may be worth something. I would look up a local auction house and ask if they have an appraisal day where people can bring things in to get their antiques appraised for free. \
Have a wonderful day!

Nice dresser/chest of drawers.
It is difficult to identify antique and even vintage furniture without more information unless you are an "expert" in that field.
