I wanted a wooden table for my kitchen and I found this for 15 dollars. I love it. I'd like to know more about it. There is no tag or maker info. Just a number underneath.
TIA

This is a great find. It is a drop leaf table. I dont know more about it, but I do know you got your moneys worth.
It is lovely!!! It looks like a 1920s to 1940s Duncan fife STYLE piece (not a real DF--but in the style of). Were I am they sell in $100-$150 range, depending on condition (you may fetch a little more if you have the leaves (if, of course it is a leave style table). Yours has a lovely patina and looks like it is quite sturdy.
The maker could be one of many--like Mersman (the paper tag could have fallen off) or it could have been made for a department store (store brand).
A vintage furniture dealer may recognize it as a specific brand immediately. I know a little about a lot of different furniture, but am not yet at the point where I recognize the hallmarks of each maker (YET--maybe some day!!)
It does have smooth legs with the claw feet...many had more textured legs...so that lends me to think it was a more affordable piece-so maybe a store brand...that is my best guesstimate.
Wishing you many lovely meals at your table! You got a great bargain!!
You are most welcome!
PS it is duncan phyfe. I hate autocorrect!
Blessings!
