<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 562144, member: 6444"]Mentioned in another thread about tables, thought this thread could work to hold different antiques made with birdseye or tiger maple. I'll start with this drop leaf table. I have a chest that matches this (but with graduated cock-beaded drawers), and a chair I'll try to post later, but this one was out since I bought it recently and haven't had a chance to clean or wax (or apply a dab of glue) yet. This is fairly early (no circular saw marks, hand-planed drawer bottom, single board tops, see how thick veneer is in third pic) so early 19th century. Not the fancy sheraton style being made in Salem with inlays, but an honest period piece that I like. Works well as a bedside table.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]171316[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]171317[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]171318[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]171319[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]171320[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
