Message:: [QUOTE="Leslie Ray, post: 4305893, member: 23362"][ATTACH=full]349419[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349420[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]349421[/ATTACH] I have two matching pieces of Ballman Cumming furniture that I bought from a contractor who was renovating a house that was well over a hundred years old. As close as I can figure, having done a little research online, the set I have is probably from 1900-1915. It's relatively rare to find very old pieces like these that were actually made in this area (I live in northwest Arkansas, have been collecting for over 30 years--this is the first time I've found furniture that is from a local company and actually has the old stamp from the manufacturer in each piece.) One of the pieces, a chest of drawers, is actually in pretty good condition for its age. The other is a dresser with a mirror, and I have to make some minor repairs to a couple of the drawers (which I plan to do). Here's a photo of the chest of drawers. Both pieces have round burned wood maker marks inside the top drawers. Does anyone want to venture a guess what I might be able to resell these for? I really like them, but my house is already too crowded. Lol.
