    These are offered in a local charity shop. two chairs and a table (I think its a table?). They are low sitters, so maybe provincial? Are they modern or antique?

    I can buy them for £49. But I don't really like them to be honest. Was more hoping to make some money out of this deal, but dont want to gamble.

    They appear to be Asian or in asian style, but I know nothing about this category.

    If I will not buy them than at least I got a bit wiser from the info which will be provided.

    thx

    I don't think there would be much profit from 49 pounds out of these, personally if I'm buying something to flip for a profit I'd go for smaller items.

    I think the "table" is actually a Japanese wooden Pillow. The chairs may be LIKU chairs. But i'm out of my comfort zone with those.

    They'd be worth it as keepers but not to sell.

    The way I look at it, if I am buying something to resell I still have to like it. There is always the possibility it won't sell and I'll be stuck with it ;)

    From my experience furniture is very hard to sell, unless you have a shop and can deliver nobody wants to buy it plus there really isn't much to be made in furniture.
    I had some really nice furniture that I didn't want and I couldn't even give it away, I ended up using it as fire wood.
