Title: Duncan Phyfe dropleaf table
Post by: bpannell 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?

The first thing is the Quality of the wood ? should not be veneered. and second would be some very good picture close up's.
