Bassett made very nice furniture and most pieces, in very good condition are valued in the hundreds.
But actually selling a piece is not always that simple even if the value is stated at $400-$800.
The area where a heavy item is located will many times be the deciding factor of final value as these items are costly to freight ship and usually sell as a pick up only item.
Your chest is sometimes called a 'gentleman's chest or traditional or even if Hi-Boy' if tall enough.
Some people also call this 'brown furniture' and this does not sell very well in some areas.
If you list it for sale I would suggest a starting price of $400 with all offers considered and free local pick up. Lower the price if no offers received.
It is traditional furniture. Bassett has been around for a long time and is still in business. You can contact them here www.bassettfurniture.com/

So, you have 1960s-1970s Bassett Dresser. Since your dresser is not in very good condition, the price is about $350-400.
