I can't for the life of me figure this out.....is it George Nelson? 

The "M" drawer pulls are the same as herman miller and the "X" shaped one broke off at some point. No other identification markers that I can find. I cant seem to find any other cabinets that resemble this one! thanks!!!!

The pulls and veneering definitely look like those on the cabinets Nelson did for Herman Miller in the 40's and 50's, like this one.  But nothing appears to have the features or dimensions of your cabinet, for example the plinth base, seven drawers, upper cabinet, 72" width, etc.  It could be a custom piece - there's a desk/cabinet unit for sale online that claims to be a custom Nelson/HM piece from 1949 for a Chicago client.  Or maybe someone pulled some doors and drawers from an old Nelson cabinet and built their own case.
