    Yup! I still have a piece like that from my mom’s family! (The whole set included this dresser, a “writing table” and double bed with a huge headboard 😹 all made of a soft wood that I assume is white pine (from the north east us)
    If anyone wants to add to the description for the alt text please let me know as I am unsure if I covered everything 😹

    A picture of the drawers of an old dresser. The handles are made to look like figs(?) or walnuts I have no idea as the leaves are wrong and in fact as a kid they looked like two funny textured breasts 😹
The whole surface is hand painted with brown stripes to make it look like wood grain (in two tones one set is dark chocolate brown (two shades of that for the grain) and the other a caramel brown in the “center” (also two shades for the grain). There is a painted “framing” around the caramel brown and splotchy painted leaves with tendrils on the sides and around a sort of painted “lattice”
