<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 175967, member: 37"]Your wash stand is circa 1860 I should think. Obviously missing feet and with that damage at the back lower left needs some work. The crack in the marble is typical and I don't think people mind all that much if the price is right. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your other piece is a dresser, missing mirror (Not a vanity). Circa 1870 and Renaissance Revival in style. The pulls are not correct and I can't tell if you have the missing drawers and all the top pieces. With the veneer damage and missing mirror, I don't think this would be too horrible to paint. It is a more common piece than the other one. However, I always hate to paint good old walnut antique pieces. There may be a time when it may be worth having with a natural wood finish.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
