More help needed - Antique Hutch
« on: October 22, 2010, 07:41:10 am »
Yet another one of my inherited antiques that I'd love to know abit more about!  This piece was won at an auction in Canada in 1950 and has been in the family ever since.  I believe it was made in the US as the lock is stamped "EAGLE LOCK CO...".  No other markings or ID stamps anywhere on the entire unit. Sorry about the Rosenthal set in it, should of taken it out for the pictures but I'm getting lazy :)

Welcome to the forum woodsy pete (from a Maritimer  ;) ) Have you checked underneath the cabinet and the drawer for any markings?  Or inside when the drawer is out? Find a good flashlight and look in the most unlikely places.  A lot of Can. made furniture (if it's that) bore US hardware, making it difficult to pin down a manufacturer.
