<p>[QUOTE=&quot;808 raver, post: 2609530, member: 4654&quot;](Reposted in the right category) </p><p>Hi all, I have just bought a fantastic solid ebony smokers cabinet, the cabinet was the first piece the cabinetmaker made for himself in around 1910-1920. It has been in the same family ever since. It came with a photo of the maker and some documentation, (newspaper ads and patent slips all in the name of the cabinetmaker) I have no reason to think this isn&#039;t true or real (a rare find). According to the seller he made chairs and a table for Manchester Town Hall. I am yet to do research on the actual maker but I&#039;m assuming he isn&#039;t famous for any reason, I am trying to find any comparable piece for a valuation but I can&#039;t find a single one anywhere else made from solid ebony. The cabinet has solid ebony apart from the back, the glass has a very deep bevel, the handles are cast brass and all in wonderful condition apart from a small shrinkage crack that travels 3 inches along the top and stable (common with ebony) The photos do not do it justice, taken tonight quickly while my Son was asleep in the same room lol</p><p>I would really appreciate any help or guesses to it&#039;s value?[ATTACH=full]271459[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]271460[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
