Duncan Phyfe dropleaf table
« on: March 14, 2010, 04:15:19 pm »
I inherited a Duncan Phyfe dropleaf table from my mother that she had acquired from a friend. I have no idea if this is an original ( which I doubt) or a reproduction. Are there any particular things I should look at to help me determine age of the table and its possible value?
