I think older than early 20th c., a renaissance revival influence, 1860-80's. Seen quite a few clocks of the era with these strong design...
Things that seem wrong; socket/cord/plug look new. If someone replaced the socket, they likely would have also replaced cord & plug. A lot will...
1965 is certainly plausible, the appearance of the back & use of Masonite was fairly common in the 50's & 60's. The varnishing adds depth and...
Your cabinet is 1929-30. Grigsby-Grunow was a major Chicago radio manufacture . . . bankruptcy in 1933. Here is my 1932 G-G model 307. Full Gothic...
Refinishing is a skill - it can be done without dismantling, but difficult and time consuming. There are products that partially dissolve a finish...
Yes, popular in the 50's -60's. A magnet test should indicate it's mostly steel, set aside the table portion ? Noticed there was a flurry of...

Thank you
This has been in the family many decades, hand done & rather thick silver.[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH]
Looks to be circa 1900 of a 16th c. design. . . wondering where such pieces were made ? A very out of favor look, but it's perfect for my eclectic...
The book matched veneer top can be polished up and they look nice, but any chips are notoriously tough to repair well.
Have a 1990s repro with the same base.
Agree. Looks like standard 1900-30 spelter base with it's old gold paint. Seen a fair number of repro shades that look an awful lot like this...
The 20th c. reproductions of Colonial furniture are just not in style. Another issue with much of the furniture made during this period, it has...
Double dose of brown.. . a tough sell. If the wood finish was lighter and it very good condition, and it needs all new upholstery and not brown -...
Functional, solid, well made, separate key locks on each drawer. . . what's not to like !
It's 1927-30. Radio cabinet design changed rapidly year over year. The cabinet industry was huge. Generic ones have limited value . . a neat relic...
