No, no hallmarks or markings at all, apart from what looks like a 'W' on one of the pieces, but could be a biro mark!

Antique Questions Forum / Dressing table set

« on: March 27, 2009, 10:44:04 am »

Hi guys

I have this peachy-coloured glass dressing table set.  Believed to be 1950s, but could be wrong.

Two mermaid candlestick holders, three pots and ring holder on oval tray.

Excellent condition.

Can anyone tell me anything about it, please?

Thanks

Antique Questions Forum / Another Dressing Table

Thank you so much for the quick response on the Harris Lebus dressing table.

There is one more dressing table which does not appear to have a manufacturer's mark.  I believe it is older (think it was my grandmother's)...could you advise on this too, please?  I promise there aren't any more!

Many thanks.

PS  This one doesn't have a mirror, unfortunately.

Antique Questions Forum / Harris Lebus Dressing Table

« on: March 08, 2009, 09:51:55 am »

Can anyone help me with any information about this item, please? 

My mum has gone into a home and we have just had an offer on her house so need to dispose of everything.  I found out today that this dressing table is Harris Lebus (there is a small round plaque in the top drawer). 

The only history I know it that is was acquired when my parents married, around 1958.

Any information or advice anyone could give me would be much appreciated, especially age, style, value and even the wood (sorry, I'm new to this but keen to learn!).

Many thanks.
