<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 224871, member: 37"]Think the trunk to be circa 1890. The upholstered pieces are from the 20s. Design is not based on any historical style but think more Italian inspired than French, as so many from this period were. Since they are in very good condition, they are saleable. Not everyone will like the upholstery choice but very few would buy with the thought of changing the fabric. Having these reupholstered would exceed the value. Here in semi-rural Midwest, maybe $350.00- $400.00 for the two pieces at retail. Less at auction or other wholesale venues. You might do better (or worse) in some locations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
