    IMG_3657.jpeg IMG_1292.JPG IMG_3657.jpeg IMG_1292.JPG IMG_1289.JPG IMG_1287.JPG IMG_1282.JPG Hello! I purchased this table a couple of years back at an antique shop. I am dying to know how old it is! I've been researching all day and coming up with mixed ideas. The legs appear to be Chippendale style, while the drawer pulls don't seem to correlate to that period. Or I could be wrong! I've seen one similar given the year 1920... So now I'm just confused.
    It isn't in the best shape. I can tell repairs have been made. I've found modern screws throughout it. Please help!

    Agree .... English circa 1920. Appears to be walnut.

    I agree it's one of ours, and could be 1930s. The last gasp of that which was not Art Deco.
