<p>[QUOTE="Aquitaine, post: 373623, member: 602"]Hi and WELCOME, [USER=7827]@NicNYC[/USER]!! [USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] I don't think will be checking in until about Wednesday, but I'm betting [USER=85]@clutteredcloset49[/USER] has probably hit the nail on the head. I too was thinking what [USER=27]@johnnycb09[/USER] has said about those 'Griffons' being possibly 'pressed wood' or applied, before he posted, and after looking hard at your very FIRST image, I am inclined to agree with him......if you look at the graining in the wood in the scales of the 'Griffon', they are not only different, but the angle is also different than in the wood behind the 'Griffon'......at least that's MY opinion.....</p><p><br /></p><p>I also have to say what a perfect, beautiful and well cared for side board your Grandmother has!!!! Please be sure to wish her a VERY Happy Birthday!!!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie82" alt=":singing:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie82" alt=":singing:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Please note, I'm not saying WHERE I think it's from because I just don't know.....the drawer pulls look replaced or new to me......has it ever, to your knowledge...been refinished?? Possibly, since you say it was IN the house your Grandparents bought, some of the other Europeans might have gone in to the furniture making business???? Just an added thought.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
