Hey carmelitah,

Welcome to the boards.

That's an Eastlake / Aesthetic movement chevel dresser or some may call it a deepwell dresser. "Chevel", because it has an integral chevel mirror or deepwell because the center goes almost down to the floor. The cupboard door on the right side would be used to store a ladies bonnet. It's very nice and appears to have the original pulls. These are relatively rare pieces. Now get it off the dollies and on the floor!
