I think you are probably right about dating it to the 1920s. It looks art deco to me and I bet those handles are bakelite. I hope you still have them, because the piece wouldn’t be the same without them.

The pulls are a giveaway. This is a midcentury piece 1950’s-1960’s.

Thanks for the input @maree85 I do still have them, there’s a piece of bakelite missing off of one of them. ☹️

I was thinking Art Deco first esp with the handles, but the curves and dots at top of the drawers reminded of a Mucha painting, and his swirls. Rather than the geometric lines patterns of Art Deco… Perhaps it’s a transition between the two art styles as they were overlapping?

Or perhaps I’m way off and it’s a 50s reproduction or something like that?

It is midcentury for several reasons: 1. The routed groove around the doors was a common detail then; 2. That color of wood stain was a 60’s shade; 3. That style of round metal pulls was midcentury for sure. If it was deco you would see curved/streamlined furniture edges and more dramatic detailing.

P.S. my background is in interior design, so I am not making this up out of thin air.....

That’s an amalgamation of lots of eras. None of the details are terribly pretty.

Thanks for the input everyone! I appreciate it!It’s not overly pretty at this point but it will be soon. It’s a blank slate… I love the detail on the drawers, and it’s about to be painted Sherwin Williams Caviar black.

I have this exact same sideboard. my mother purchased it for my nannie in the 50s. i have loved it since i was a child I am looking for the bakelite cabinet pulls if you are intersted in selling them. 😊
