Help Identify China Cabinet Passed Down

China Cabinet passed down from great-grandparents. Atleast 50 years old. I have taken out drawers and looked all over to find a hint to when it was made.

 

still need better pics..

 

Hi Tori!

Welcome to Antiquers........

Sometimes they have a stamped mark on the back.....sometimes!

 

The only mark I have found is stamped on the back 1000 CHINA

 

Unfortunately not a name of a Company.....China probably is just short for China Closet.

The name of the company probably isn't that important to estimate value in this case. It has "finish" issues......Prices vary in different locations.

@verybrad perhaps can help estimate value.....

In my location (10 miles N of Boston), I'd say $50-$100.

 

1940s mahogany. Can hardly give these away here.

 

I know; t'is sad 'old brown furniture' isn't adored these days as it was by our parents and grandparents.

 

Well, that is mostly true however, I just lost a piece of "sad old brown furniture"
yesterday that WAS adored by someone, it sold for over 25k.

 

Thank you. I assumed it was for China cabinet. I was mostly interested in the year it was made. Just some info to pass down to my son, their great great grandson. Thank you for referring a friend to help! You guys have been awesome!

 

Thank you. I could never sell it, just something sentimental to me. I hope to find someone local who can spruce her up as far as her finish goes. Just an old piece to link to the family. Have a blessed day!

You never know! My uncle is an auctioneer and he has some amazing stories of pieces he bought for nearly nothing, selling for thousands! I love it!

 

Bravo! I love old brown furniture. Arts & Crafts/Limbert. Yum.

 

lol, Well no, not that kind of old brown furniture, this kind

 

Agree with Brad 1940s

There is a product called Howard's Restor-A-Finish. They have mahogany. Then use the Feed and Wax. You could try that first.
