<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 10093133, member: 6444&quot;]You could be right, but I disagree. This does not look homemade to me, it looks mid to late 19th century factory made to me. There was a population explosion in the US in that time, so tons of factory furniture production going on.</p><p><br /></p><p>This piece requires dovetails, paneling, veneering, scrollwork, case work and turning; a homeowner doing all this when he could just buy the piece premade would have been quite unusual. Nothing I see is hand-done, but it requires a lot of different power and hand tools. Which is exactly what you would have gotten from a 19th century factory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
