I'm in Cincinnati but the story is that this set was brought over from Germany. I'm not sure I really believe that. Has anyone seen that pattern before? I haven't seen anything like it doing some research. Any clue on manufacturer or where to look on the pieces. I have scoured them and found nothing on them.

It may have been in Germany before America but that is not German craftsmanship in my opinion. Maybe the legs are, they have no place on a sideboard of that style from the period.

Dewain,  ;D on images if check there under colonial revival there isn't much. If you put in jacobean check the results. I am only going by what my eyes saw. Nice find Ipcress. This piece is in such bad shape. It looks like it's been used in a garage! I don't mean to insult your sideboard, it does look a little worked over. Needs some good tlc.

Thank you everyone. I will get more pictures when I go back tomorrow. No insult taken. It has sat in a basement for 20 years at least. It was abused. I'm just wondering whether its worth to save or not. I do know that a lot of it is veneer on there. It's peeling off on the china cabinet due to a flood but the table is in the best shape out of all of it.
