<p>[QUOTE="BrookeFlorida561, post: 10582433, member: 94233"]Hello Antiquers! I'm a total noob here and have a question about a table that has been in my family for a few generations. We're currently using it as a Scrabble table, and before that a laundry folding table. We used it as a dining table 40+ years ago, and I believe my great-great aunt used it for sewing. </p><p><br /></p><p>It has slightly rounded/smoothed corners on the two end-leaves with rather plain, Amish looking lines as shown. The original stain is barely hanging on in places. I think it is either cherrywood or maple perhaps? There are no chairs with it. Does ANYONE have any information they can share? I tried looking up the maker's mark (?) and patent number (?) that is inked on the bottom, but I've had no luck. I haven't the slightest idea how to value this piece or learn more about its origins. Thank you for lending your insight![ATTACH=full]530884[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]530885[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
