In family for over 100 years
Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a late 19th century solid oak table with carved trestle base and a set of four solid oak chairs in a neo-renaissance country style. The turned wood legs and backrests are very decorative but do not meet the current taste of the average furniture buyer.
This table could easily last a few hundred years, the proud already semi-industrial craftsmanship made it last for generations. Currently prices for antique furniture are low. The estimate is based on similar furniture sold at auction.
