[QUOTE="HMB, post: 405303, member: 7939"]My girlfriend brought these home from an estate sale the other day and after doing some research I think she landed a pretty decent score. [B]Lane coffee and side tables - 701/702 Serial 654170 - Dates them to 07-14-56 from what I understand [/B] She got the set for $100 Just looking for more info on the tables, only saw a few of the 702 side tables online, couldn't find anything on the 701 coffee table. Not sure what type of wood they're made from but they're pretty dense. Each table weighed 25 lbs. on our bathroom scale. If I had to guess, I'd say beech wood. She wants to paint the tables green but after realizing they're legit vintage Lane pieces, I would like to sand them down, stain a bit darker and finish with a lacquer coat. What is the best/recommended restoration method for these? Thanks in advance. -HB [IMG]http://i65.tinypic.com/e97qyg.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i67.tinypic.com/29bec5x.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i65.tinypic.com/wcbhj9.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i65.tinypic.com/21l8ydj.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/35c4xtz.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/2my2oo3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i65.tinypic.com/2mzwdqp.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/2lcu0yb.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/6oo8ys.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
