Antique Questions Forum / China Cabinet and Buffet Table -Not sure what I have...

« on: January 17, 2014, 08:37:56 pm »

I've owned the 2 pictured items for close to 22 years. My wife and I purchased them from a friend (in addition to a dining room table and 8 chairs, which have long since bit the dust) for $3,000. The friend (not sure what he paid) bought the pieces at an estate sale in Gross Pt., Michigan in the late 1980's. Since we'll be moving shortly, I'm considering parting with these items but I really have no idea how much -or little- they might actually be worth. I have looked all over both of these pieces (on the back, undersides, inside drawers etc.) and I cannot for the life of me find the name of a manufacturer or date. I tried browsing on line, but it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

If anyone can offer any information whatsoever, I'd be very appreciative (I realize there isn't much to go on... I just don't know where to start). Thanks!
