[QUOTE="Kasperscuriosities, post: 40328, member: 404"]I apologize for the dust and spiderwebs in advance. This is my dad's and since my mom passed his house doesn't get dusted as regular as it once was. Anyways, him and my mom bought this years ago. It was in and antique shop and they wanted 3500 but my mom thought that was too much. She waited and the antique shop ended up going out of business and she bought it in the auction for 1500. So I guess she was happy. My dad seems to think it is older than originally thought but there is no markings on it anywhere. It surely has been recovered and maybe even refinished at some point but I am not furniture expert. Anyone have any clue how old this may actually be or how we can tell without loading it up and taking it somewhere? Thanks so much.
