Dining room set on CL - deal or no deal? (pics)
Comments (1)I never heard of American in Seattle. Many are going for the country look I don't think it will be going out of style anytime in the near future, hopefully we're making a come back as it is my personal favorite. As for the price it depends on the quality, if it is solid hardwood with no veneers, I would say $400 would be a fair price....See MoreMy new dining room set from CL $700
Comments (21)Thanks everyone. :) Oceanna, Estreya - Yes, I'm definitely excited! When we got home, I almost regretted asking the seller if he could keep it for a few weeks longer. (Their house is for sale, and it shows better with more furniture. Meanwhile I wanted time to spruce up our old set and photograph it for sale in the DR instead of the garage. ) jerseygirl, The seller didn't know the manufacturer. It was bought 2 years ago at Freed's Furniture. Suero, good point about the glass top. We plan to brace it with a wooden block or cylinder painted black Lynn, I'll definitely post pics one of these days. I bet your DH's table was solid wood. This one is veneered, but even the veneer is high these days. (DH looked for some after we bought the table.) pharaoah - I just bought a beautiful tablecloth at LNT's closeout! Good thing it was under $20. I'm not sure what I'll do when we actually eat at the table. ;-) I'd really hate to cover it then, but neither do I want to risk the finish. When we get it home, I'll find out just what the finish is and how durable it is. As for not seeing things like this on your local CL, it's pretty rare around here, too. I'm glad it was worth slogging through all the postings to find this. Oddly enough I saw a coffee table that combined a similar grain with black accents yesterday, but it was gone by the time I went back to the listing...See MoreHelp Please! Damaged Henredon CL Table.
Comments (4)Thanks, everyone! I figured it would be crazy expensive to restore the whole thing (and I could cover it up with a tablecloth in the meantime). I don't have any reason to doubt the seller (it was originally his parents' set and passed down years ago), but it would be kind of funny if it were dog damage since, unfortunately, that is not exactly an extraordinary occurrence in my household. :) I'm going to check it out in person tomorrow. The whole set is priced at $1k, which seems like a pretty great price to me, even assuming I'll have to have the table refinished and the chairs reupholstered, etc. Thoughts? I may need to start a new thread at some point for tips on making my dining room not look like a furniture store, too, haha. Thanks again for all the advice! It's very much appreciated. I don't like being uninformed! This post was edited by StellaMarie on Tue, Jul 2, 13 at 21:49...See MoreWhat style is this dining set? CL link.
Comments (7)Well, the paneled leg and skirt on the table are French-influenced, but the scale is beefier. It looks like a Western Regional furniture along the lines of Thomas Molesworth which is cabin- or ranch-deco, from the thirties and forties. (although the Molesworth is definitely more individual)-there is definitely a deco or moderne influence to the pieces along with a vaguely Native American medallion motif and "cloud lift" thing going on with the back rail. My guess is it could be any time in the mid century from forties to sixties....See Morenhb22
