[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 9854684, member: 5170"]To add to the overall “oddness,” the decorative plaques are not only not mirrors to each other, as Debora stated above, but the plaque themes of ducks below and flowers above ARE appropriate to the time frame I mentioned. I’m starting to think that this looks like a hobby piece, perhaps later into the 1920s, one where the cabinet maker bothered to research Rococo and Renaissance Revival decoration but didn’t bother to copy how they were integrated into mid-19th Century pieces, perhaps through lack of time or skill.[/QUOTE]
