I&#039;m hoping one of you generous and knowledgable folks out there can help me with a couple of questions I have about a table I recently refinished. Pictures are attached. Table measures 50.5&quot;W x 20.5&quot;D x 25&quot; high. No maker&#039;s mark, unfortunately. It did have some writing on the underside of the table (the number 303), and another number on the underside of the table base (&quot;1518-40&quot;).</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m wondering a few things:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. It has the profile of a library table, but at 25&quot; high, it feels a little low to be used as desk (which I believe was the main use of library tables). Does this height rule it out as that?</p><p>2. I believe it to be made of mahogany, but would love to see if others agree.</p><p>3. Based on the construction (hand-finished screw heads) and the style, I&#039;m thinking it was made in the late 1800&#039;s. But again, I&#039;d love to see if others agree.</p><p>4. I know the Victorian period was all about revivals, though I&#039;m not an expert on delineating them. I would say this is Jacobean Revival, but not 100% sure. I&#039;ve done a fair amount of research, but people listing similar pieces online seem to play fast and loose with their descriptions!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d so appreciate any input/feedback you may have to offer!</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
