<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alix, post: 287379, member: 3598&quot;]I came across this piece at a small thrift shop in Tennessee. Appears to be Rosewood with Satinwood Marquetry.</p><p><br /></p><p>Correct me if I am wrong (and it’s quite possible I am because this is my rookie season), but does the pediment look “Off”? There is something about it that doesn’t flow/look right. It was almost impossible to access the back of this piece to check for obvious signs of merging or alteration. The place was stacked with items and I would’ve caused a landslide had I tried.</p><p><br /></p><p>The owner of the thrift shop had just returned from an estate sale in Brentwood/Franklin, Tennessee. That is where he procured this along with three other pieces. Almost all the pieces he had purchased were this style.&nbsp; I am thinking this piece is circa 1890(ish) but that pediment/top Mirror part is throwing me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Could somebody be so kind as to provide any feedback they might have about this piece? Especially the pediment.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]92667[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]92668[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]92669[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
