<p>[QUOTE="Adrian Lewis, post: 2659599, member: 12565"]Quite possibly. 141 may be a batch number. 3 I am usure as my interest didn't lie in decoding factory numbers, only buying/selling/auctioning. It's quite plausible though as the simple dining suite for us Brits consisted of table, chairs and sideboard, if you could afford one. This was/is what's called "Utility furniture" of the period akin to US Depression furniture, hence the caution regarding the panels as ay savig on solid wood was paramount to production costs. Most if not all our utility furniture from the late 20s to the 40s was veneered blockboard for door, plywood panels in the sides, drawer bottoms and backs of sideboards and other furniture.</p><p>Nearly all Jacobean/Elizabethan Revival.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
