Hi Christina,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

The R.E. LaMague Corporation specialized in colonial reproduction furniture, particularly Windsor chairs, rockers, and other classic early American forms. They were known for using traditional craftsmanship methods, such as hand-turning and hand-finishing, and often used maple and cherry woods. Though I can't find any information on when the company was founded, it was active primarily in the mid-20th century and company emphasized heirloom-quality American-made furniture.
