Sideboard Idefication please

We have a sideboard, we have had this since 1983, we bought it from someone moving from a house to a flat, we are sure the history is East End of London but nothing definate please identify

This does,nt look like a sideboard..it looks like a dressing table without the mirror...can you give us a pic of the rear...but if it is a sideboard..is that box in the middle for cutlery...date wise..it looks like 1930,s/40,s

Its a sideboard, the top drawer is a cutlery drawer, the box on the top is a  monolopy set that we have there, there is a dining room table too. there are no holes at the rear where anything has been attached.  Any idea roughly how much it would be worth please

I agree on the date Wullie gave !!  He would know more what value it would have in the UK !!  Are the pulls missing from the side compartments ??

[ghopper1924]

Wull's right on the date. Looks like late Deco made of mahogany very stylish!

i,ve seen similar ones to this at Taylors Auction house...the sides..were made of a mahogany veneered plywood that..have a spring loaded catch..whereby with a deft little push  the side door opened..value wise...as a complete set..e.g dining room suite...comprising of sideboard,dining table & chairs...will be in the region of £100/150..depending on cond....can you check if there is a makers name on it...Lebus...was a popular make...Stag..was another...

Thanks everyone for your replys and help
It had no pulls to begin with
Lebus was a posibility I remember them
It is definately not plywood definately solid wood
Not heard of Stag

Any more ideas please

Thanks

could you give us a pic of the side opened...mahogany has a fibrous grain..but to have the door curved..like it is would put a lot of stress..on it..which make,s me believe that its core is ply with a mahogany veneer..to open the side,s do you just give it a little push..the hinges should be of the soft close type..we need more pics..thats for sure...is the cutlery drawer lined with a velvet type material..and it should be sectioned....

Would sure surprise me if those doors were solid !!

Will take some more pictures later, the doors are a lock and key and the cutlery drawer is lined with green felt

Gorgeous piece of Art Deco!  Please post a picture of the side of the drawer construction.  Look for any stamped or marked names in drawers/back of drawers, inside.  Thanks!

Well,..i,ll have to say...i,m pleasantly surprised with this construction...espe cially the doors...but it does,nt change what i think its worth...i visit here once a month..Taylors Auction House...Montrose... and you,d be shocked at what pieces like this are fetching....suffice to say...a lot of similar pieces..go up my lum.....much to the annoyance of ...KC....but i have to keep me and Avril warm..and this is a cheap way of doing it....

[typetalkjane@aol.com]

[bigwull]

Well if you do..please be sure to post the link...I.d really love to be wrong about my evaluation....
