This is a follow up to my other post...I'm restoring an old chest o' drawers and got looking at it today, inside one of the top drawers there's a brand burned into it, saying
Cottage Collection (in cursive) SOLID BIRCH by MORRIS (in cursive) The brand is outlined in sort of a shield-type design.
I was wondering if this old piece might be worth something? I bought it at a yard sale as a restoration project, it was a little busted up but I've managed to repair it nicely. The finish on the top is trashed - it probably bounced around 20 different houses over the years, but the wood is sound. I doubt if it's worth much, but thought I'd ask, since I don't know squat about old furniture except for what I like and what I can remake into something useful. Besides, for five bucks, I didn't get hurt either way. Thanks for your expertise.
