<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 114567, member: 37&quot;]This is a transitional piece between the Renaissance Revival style and the Eastlake.&nbsp; It has characteristics of both.&nbsp; This type of furniture would typically be done in walnut but this does look more like mahogany in these pictures.&nbsp; It was probably fairly new when it came to Kansas.&nbsp; As to where it was made, it is hard to tell.&nbsp; Much of the quality furniture of this era was made either on the East coast or Chicago.&nbsp; I would think the latter if this was purchased while your relatives were in Champaign, IL.&nbsp; If it originally came from PA, it is probably an East coast piece.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Welcome to the board from one who has lived on and off in Champaign, IL for most of my life.&nbsp; I currently live just outside.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
