      Looks to be a Victorian wishbone dresser-- the shape of the mirror base gives it the name.

      I wouldn't strip it-- it has a lot of thin veneer that will pull up with some types of stripping. I'd just repair the veneer damage.

      About 25- 30 years ago, these were really in vogue and brought $800= $1200 in good condition. They are not popular now and many can be found for a few hundred in excellent condition.
