I have decided to sell these items but don't know what would be a fair asking price. I know they are not antiques, but they are old.
Can anyone give me any idea about around what they might be worth? ...... just a ballpark figure or some type of possible range for what would be a reasonable asking price.
In advance, thank you sooooo much.

Is the top of the second photo a different wood or just stained different?

The top actually isnt wood at all. Honestly, I am not sure what it is. It seems like granite or something.

They are both solid wood and will guess they are circa 1930 or 40’ish which would make them “vintage” rather than antique. The 1-drawer stand looks to be walnut but not sure about the drop-leaf table. It may be what is called “fruitwood”. A coat of Old English furniture polish would “spark” them right up.

Thanks for the help
I was afraid to just clean them like the rest of my furiture because I didn't know anything about them. The one in the top photo-I actually have two of them. They were just passed down to me. I think it is made of oak. The wood seems very solid and heavy.

Hello:)
I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about these. I don't know if they are antique or replica, but they belonged to my grandfather when he was a child. I know NOTHING about furniture or antiques and am just wondering if anyone knows anything about the style, period...... or anything with these 2 pieces of furniture.
In advance, thank you soooo much!!
