Hi April,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
While just one of these cabinets would probably bring between $400-600 at auction, having two warrants a value of more than just double that price.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
A pair of Asian style black lacquered elm(?) side cabinets
early 20th Century
each of rectangular section, the case fitted with two short drawers with single loop pull over two paneled cupboard doors, opening to a red-stained shelved interior, all on short straight legs. Unmarked.
27-1/2 inches high, 25 inches wide, 16 inches deep
CONDITION: Minor wear and cracking from use and age.
PROVENANCE: Acquired from a gallery/dealer
$400-600 each or $1,000-1,500 for the pair*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto.
