This wonderful cast iron doll dresser belonged to a very elderly lady, who gave it to me over 30 years ago, when she was in her late 90s. It had been her mother's as a child. My friend had never married, and no had no one to pass it on to, but me! I'm so grateful! The back has a patent date of February 5, 1867. It stands about 10" tall.
