[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 9984872, member: 301"]All the above.... mixed in with many years of experience , and book learning of styles and hands on touching.... Oh...& you'll luv this.... " never judge a book by it's cover " Hardware can be swapped out... table tops can be added or replaced.. pieces may be missing & of course...Revival..... items made to look like period pieces.... large or small , over time some items may have been stripped... stained, or painted to suit a more modern look.. Yes....the type of wood used is an important part of identification as well.... So.... at a glance... off the cuff.... one has to be well practiced...well seasoned...with many years of training a good eye..... for that kind of snap identification to hold any value at all !!![/QUOTE]
