<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 142950, member: 37"]New pics confirm the 20s date. Pics are too poor to identify wood still. The close-up of the chair looks more like mahogany than walnut since it is so red. Is it really this red in real life? Market for such really varies on location, sales venue, how fast you need to sell, willing to ship, etc., etc. In general, values are down for old furniture, even in good original condition as this seems to be. A set like this (buffet, server, table w/ 6 chairs) could go as low as $200.00 at auction here in rural Midwest or as high as $1000.00 at retail. I suspect the realistic value is somewhere in between. You might do better in big cities or coastal locations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
