What is this multilevel surface dresser called?

Hello. I am thinking of purchasing this dresser. But I'm trying to find out what type it would be called, having different heights for the top surfaces and the purpose. Trying to find out so that I can research it by name, and get some redecorating ideas. Thank you all!
Hoping to find out name for this style of dresser.

    I'll take a shot at it..."could be" a gentleman's dresser. There would be a 3/4 mirror over the single drawer. If you google " antique gentleman's dresser" that layout of cabinetry comes up.

    This is only the top half of a dresser. It has lost it's base portion somewhere along the way. You need to think of some creative and useful way to re-purpose it in it's current state. Please don't cut it apart or do something to permanently change it forever. You never know, someday the other half may turn up. Meanwhile, clean it up and give it a new life as something unique and very special! You have a real found treasure. Enjoy it.
