unsure what this is

10 years ago

My husband was given this 40 years ago or so. The top drawer has 3 sections, the middle section has rails on which a tray could slide, on the left side toward the back is a lock that locks all drawers but not the door. thinking a tiger-wood veneer? any thoughts on age? or what to even call it, we just call it the blond piece.

Looks like a very nice tiger maple and maple burl veneered chest...i would guess ti was intended to be a liquor cabinet. Mid Century...or a bit earlier.

would not a liquor cabinet be more shelf, less drawer?

Yeah....probably.....If that top drawer is as I am picturing it....it's probably a dresser....with space for hats shoes etc. and the slider thingey is for cufflinks, collar stays, tie pins and loose change.
