Hard to tell from the photo. But for what you paid, you did good.

You need to look at how the drawers are constructed...if the joints are dove tail and not uniform, you did REALLY good.

these are interesting, please post more pics when you get your hands on them!

I was going to say they looked like stuff from DH's grandmother which was late 30s, 40s. But the proof is in the construction.

When they get to you, take some better pics. Especially the way the drawers are made (frint dovetails and the way the drawer bottoms are made, and the way the legs attach to the sides.

There is a lot of early 1800s STYLE furniture that was made much later, because it's a good style.

My thought is 1920s-1940s colonial revival.

There was colonial revival in the last part of the 19th century but it tended to be a more exuberant, Victorianized version of period, and this seems rather spare. (But without the more delicate or fragile appearance of actual first period furniture).

Gorgeous tables! I am extremely jealous. I've been looking for something similar for my house and haven't found anything as beautiful.

Ohhh! Thank you for the info, everyone! I had my mom check out the drawers, and they are only nails, so a good deal (better than Ikea!) but not an AMAZING one.

For me, what was telling was the tops-- they seem glossy, which would not be characteristic of 1875, yes? I would think the glossy = veneer.

Prickly, that is sweet of you to say. Sending fairy dust so that you find something soon!!!!
