★★★★★“Spend the extra to get it refurbished!”Dustin, Etsy review

This 1960s Young Manufacturing highboy dresser is a clean, architectural take on the two tier gentlemen’s chest, built in warm walnut with the maker’s signature concave styling. The upper cabinet wears a pair of book matched walnut doors with quietly dramatic grain, while the lower case carries three long drawers whose fronts sweep inward in a gentle concave curve, creating strong horizontal shadow lines across the front. A shaped stretcher base with sculpted legs finishes the case with a light, lifted stance.

The cabinet doors open to a fitted interior pairing open shelf storage with a bank of three drawers, a flexible arrangement for folded clothing, accessories, or linens. Below, the three full width drawers provide deep everyday capacity, so the dresser concentrates a full bedroom’s worth of storage into one tall, compact footprint. This highboy is of the period and unmarked, consistent with Young Manufacturing production.

This highboy dresser is in vintage as-pictured condition, showing wear consistent with age and use including surface wear, finish inconsistencies, and minor imperfections throughout. These characteristics contribute to the original vintage appeal and authenticity that many collectors appreciate. For those looking for a fully refinished example, we also offer a restored option. Restoration includes a complete professional refinishing process with sanding, staining, glazing, toning, and lacquering, along with functional adjustments to ensure all drawers and doors operate smoothly and the furniture is ready for everyday use.
