40 GBP = a little more than 50 USD. If this were mine, I would be shooting for about triple that or just a bit under, assuming good condition....
Hard to tell age with the new upholstery. Could be as early as the 30s or fairly modern. It is based on an ancient Roman form so style is...
Agree with a 70s date. I can see why you used the marble with the columns but I would prefer the table as-is over your current set up. To each...
Elements of this call for this being a late renaissance revival piece circa 1880. Other aspects read later. Can we see drawer construction?...
Might call it a plantation desk, though most do not have a cabinet at the bottom. It is older than you think. Really a drop-front secretary Circa...
Think it is hand-arbeit. Would this be contemporary Westerwald?
This little jug is signed but I can not make it out. Any help? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] The center of the signature is just as illegible as it appears...
It has been quite awhile since I have posted to this thread. I buy all the time but most of what I buy, while it makes me money, is really not...
Think maybe Belgian or French. Rambervillers?
I'm in the 20s-30s camp
Assuming real inlay, I also think Edwardian or so.
Here we go ….. a bit older example [IMG] Currently on ebay…......
Now that I have said this, I can't find another example :rolleyes: Somewhat similar with a drop-front for more writing surface. [IMG]

Basically, agree with the above. Could be as late as 1930 but don't dispute an earlier 20th century date. Wood looks like it could be elm.
Transitional piece from Renaissance Revival to Eastlake. Circa 1875. May very well be a marriage. Note that the drawer pulls do not match. Do...
Dittto everything said above. This is likely to be solid brass (though the chains may be plated steel). Consequently, this will polish up nicely...
I am with Greg on this one.....
Would think 50s-60s. Looks to be brass. May not polish easily due to being lacquered.
