    IMG_1413.jpg IMG_1415.jpg IMG_1416.jpg IMG_1417.jpg IMG_1449.jpg IMG_1452.jpg Hi, I am new to this board and have recently posted on Antiques board, but I have come across these two Chinese Tables measuring 33.5" tall X 23" wide with pink marble tops. They weigh about 45-50lbs each and have no damage as to broken areas at all to any of the woodwork, aside from the obvious aging. I can not find any screws, nails or staples and there is some chinese writing underneath.
    can anyone help me Identify period and estimated value. Many thanks

    I'm with kyra (as usual;)).
    These tables are typical for the late 19th-early 20th century.

    I'm Crossing my fingers that mine are very detailed with visible age, and can possibly be earlier 19th. Just wishful thinking is all. These seem visibly old but maybe just not recently restored *shrugs*

    I was just offered $200 each for them :bored:. I feel a bit insulted, should I be? I understand that something is only worth what another is willing to pay for it, but these tables have great hand carved detail and never been broken or repair, not even a chipped off piece. Are they really that common in this size. I cant find any this size on the internet, only the 18" stools or stands for a plant. Or is it, there is no demand for this style? (I dont really want them either, lol)

    No, i don't think so, I'd take the 200 each & run! Kyra link has them as post 1920 so not even antique, more like vintage and since there is a depression in antique "brown furniture" prices ........
    Plus that's about what they brought at auction in Kyra link.
