thanks for the welcome and help...so all she could tell me was that she got the table at an estate sale and it was a hepplewhite style stand.  It seems like the table was repainted because u can see the wood then what appears to be white paint and then blue.  also the table top is not even and seems to have most wear where the wood is raised.  also seems like maybe a leg was replaced because one leg has grooves like it was slid in...hope these pics are better...

Hello, we were shopping in an antique store in New Hampshire this week and came across this beautiful stand...the woman in the shop said it was circa 1810 and had it labelled as a Hepplewhite. 
We are new to this and are not sure how to authenticate this piece and if it is truly a hepplewhite style and circa 1810.
Any thoughts/help would be appreciated.
