<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dom26, post: 162483, member: 2693&quot;]Hi, am a new member here.</p><p><br /></p><p>I regularly re-do old furniture and in general work a lot with wood. I&#039;ve recently picked up a bench which I was about to sell on eBay but I think it is very unique so I was wondering if anyone could help in shedding some light on it; date, origin + weather it may be of any significant value? Should I continue to flog it on eBay or take it to a dealer?</p><p><br /></p><p>From what I have found out (which is quite little): the legs are turned bobbin legs, which were common arounds 1870 and it is apparently very uncommon to have turned bobbin legs on a bench.</p><p><br /></p><p>It may also be worth noting that there really is no particularly skilled joinery in this piece but it seems very unique and pretty none the less. I&#039;m fascinated by antique furniture but know nothing about what is valuable so greatly appreciate the help!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]44394[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]44395[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]44396[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
