<p>[QUOTE="mark737, post: 4329122, member: 14894"]My advice to you is to install the Pinterest Chrome extension and to sign up for a free account on liveauctioneers.com to see what items have sold for at auction. For example, using Pinterest, in a few minutes I found many similar tables to establish some keywords, like Boulle, and Napolean III . Then went to liveauctioneers and searched using these keywords and "game table". This is one of the results, which sold at a New Orleans auction in 2015 for $4,000. Described as:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Napoleon III Rosewood and Boulle Games Table</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>late 19th century, the square top with decorative boulle-work banding surrounding a brass and faux tortoise chess board, above a conforming shaped frieze with boulle panels and corner ormolu maiden mounts, raised on cabriole legs ending in sabots.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>[ATTACH=full]355695[/ATTACH] </i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
