From looking at those last two pics,,,the dovetails do look consistant with 1940 or so !! But,,you may have one of the better quality reproductions which would account for the hardware !! They have been reproducing this type furniture for many years !! Its still a nice chest and well worth keeping !! Is there a style number on the back ?? Sometimes there is !! Doesn't help much but it was and still is pretty common to find one !!
