Please excuse the terrible photos- these pictures do not do justice to how beautiful this furniture is! I have all of the above pieces + one more nightstand and a standing mirror. I'll try to take better pictures soon in the daylight.
This is all vintage late 1950s/early 1960s Henry Link furniture. It's HEAVY wood with dove tailed corners and the Henry Link name is etched inside some of the drawers. It is all an antique white color with gold trim. The coolest thing about it is that it came with the original catalog and sales receipt! As a person that loves old things much better than new things, it is a dream to find so many pieces in perfect condition. I visited this set in an antique store several times over the course of two months in deciding whether to buy it. I was able to negotiate about 20% off the price, but it still wasn't frugal!!!!! :D

It's beautiful Tessa! I'm sure it's well worth whatever you paid.
I agree---very pretty! And VERY heavy! ;-) I can't wait to see how you've got it arranged.

It's frugal in the sense that you will get years of enjoyment and will not have it break on you a few years in like some cheap furniture of today!
I found your blog when I did a search on Henry Link furniture. I bought a dresser for my daughter from a yard sale. You can see a picture of it on my blog, but it matches the furniture you have.
Hello - I love your Henry Link furniture. I was searching the web and found your blog. I have 2 pieces I'm selling - my daughter has "outgrown them" - they are vintage from the late 1950's to early 1960's. you can see them at craigslist - Lynchburg, VA - vintage Henry Link furniture. Enjoy yours :0)
So funny that I found this link while looking to sell my childhood bedroom set, purchased in the late 1970's. It IS beautiful and durable. I'd be curious what they wanted for it...
