mahogany tilt top pie crust table
« on: April 22, 2016, 10:27:10 am »
Made by imperial in grand rapids, under the top by the pedestal is the imperial sticker and shield along with number 55 and number 1142. Excellent condition. Does anyone have an idea of the value
 I will always keep it, but curious.

If it is a tilting table top with the fluted pie edge the value is totally contingent upon condition of the piece, the intricacy of the edges on the table and the area you are in.

You can search Imperial tilt top table fluted edge and see what the going rates are.  (Averages $90 - $150)

Yes, I have done searches and find such a broad price range based on what people want for an identical table. Anywhere from 250.00 to over 400.00. I am in Texas and want a matching table, but do not want to over pay. Hoping for someone knowledgeable in antiques/vintage who may know a reasonable price.

Sounds like you have a bad url link to where ever the photo is stored.

Try copying or uploading the photo to your PC ...... and then upload it from your PC to AFQ.

KC and I are both in Texas !!  Her prices are correct for that type table !! Because someone asks a price does not mean its worth it !!  There is a nice one on ebay now for $100. BIN,, another looks like identical table is priced at $500+. !!  The difference in the two looks like a coat of Old English Dark oil !!

Right, which is why I don't want to pay what someone wants but reasonable value. I had previously checked eBay and saw one listed for $100.00, but when opening the ad, it shows $450. I found one today I purchased for $65.00 also made by imperial with a mahogany registration number. So, I'm satisfied.

Have not been to Waco, but know a few of the smaller towns !! Brother has a BBQ restaurant in Clifton,,not far from there !!  Spent a couple of months in that area helping with the artwork and rehabbing a house for them !!  Smaller towns are good for bargains at garage sales ect !!

I usually find great deals at Cedar Chest in McGregor, Cameron Trading in Waco, Laverty's in Waco is open sporadically and some really great items most of the time, some over priced, but some great deals, if you ever go through Lorena off 35 outside of Waco there are two stores there. One is the most amazing antique store I have ever been in, very stunning old bank building with antiques like I have never seen anywhere else. They have many European items.

My favorite house renovation show is Fixer Upper filmed out of Waco!  Looks like a town I would love to live in!
I should have been born in another era!

Love the Waco area!  Just don't get down there often. 

Jisherf, we enjoy Fixer Upper as well.  Joanna came an spoke at our church women's group and Chip is speaking at the men's conference soon.  They are down to earth, family loving people that got a great opportunity to expand their lives while staying grounded!
