Help Identifying Style of Buffet Table

    I'm told this is circa 1910 and made in the USA. It's 73 inches long, 21 inches deep, and about 36 inches high. I've been looking at various buffet tables for the dining room and this one is different than any other I've seen. What style would this be considered? BTW, this is in such perfect shape I wonder if it is a reproduction rather than an antique as claimed. buffet.jpg

    If it was a victrola, it would be called an Art Cabinet.
    That's all I got for now. :(

    Guessing 1920s Renaissance / Jacobean revival styled.
    I'll let others nail it down.

    Yes, a Jacobethan Revival credenza. Probably 1920s. The top grain looks suspiciously like a repop, but the rest has probably just been refinished. Get it if the price is right (low) for your location.

    Jacobethan indeed. Might even be a Brit. Redone.

    Asking $795 which seems like a great value to me--but I am admittedly ignorant. Just hoping the other half likes it as much as I do... Thanks for the help!

    ...was also going to say that it could indeed be a reproduction as it is in such perfect condition. I've never seen such perfectly working drawers in an antique, for example. Smooth as silk.

    Price is WAY too high.

    Hmm. What would you expect to pay?

    I'd expect the real, 100-year-old-or-so dining room buffet/credenza to be $200 or so at auction in the U.S. Midwest, maybe less.

    I think that's just the angle of the photo I took. I believe they are about 6" under the rail. Overall height is 36."

    That's helpful. Not sure if this place negotiates price, but I will soon find out!

    Yup, the space is not thicker than the cross that sits on it.
    That being said, take a look under it if it's important to you. ;)
