[QUOTE="L0z, post: 207587, member: 3918"]Hi all, I am looking for any advice/info on this antique piece I recently came across. I have absolutely no experience in antique furniture, although I have attempted to identify it's period and estimated value - but haven't had much luck other than it's likely to be 19th century based on the fact that the drawers have 7 dovetails which I believe was introduced in the 19th century as apposed to the use of 2 dovetails pre-19 C? I have read mixed views on the use of spiral columns & legs and also the hand carved features, which I am wondering, could that be at al significant to the maker, or the period.... All-in-all I'm pretty stumped on this and am none the wiser, and would really appreciate any help. I hope the photo's are adequate but could always provide more if required:) Many thanks .: L0z :. - [ATTACH=full]60221[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60222[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60223[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60224[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60225[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60226[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60227[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60228[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
