Credenza
« on: December 14, 2015, 09:57:49 pm »
Credenza came without marble top, I added the marble to the piece. Please let me know the origin of the item, details and if it is antique and approximate value.

Very much appreciated

Hi!

Please post a picture of the back of the piece, the side of the drawer (close up of the front attached to sides) and a picture of the hardware (door hinge, handles).

I'm from the South - but please don't mistake my Southern Manners/Accent/Charm as a weakness!

Where are you located? Where was the item found?

Now that I see the back of it I'm thinking that it's a reproduction piece ca. 1940, rather than the Renaissance Revival piece from 1870 or so that it first appears to be. With the later marble top I'd say it's worth maybe $150 or so.
