Agree with syl......the actual piece makes the difference in verification and value!

ginnim3 are there any markings on the undersides to indicate manufacturer?  Known history behind the piece? pieces?

This style of William & Mary's Gate Leg Table has be reproduced over and over.  Originals are worth $$$$$$$$ (and did cost a pretty penny to get at the time) and reproductions are worth $$ or it's value lies in that it is  a family heirloom and useful table as well.

Kc From info given they would appear to be later version's. oak was commonly used in the 17& 1800's. not with standing. Walnut & Mahogany are desireable wood grains.
