Furniture is in Ann Arbor, MI. We have moved out of state and don't have space for this unique dining room set. The set includes a table, 5 chairs + 1 King/Queen chair, buffet and cupboard. Several pictures are available. Description Appraiser Comments: Dining Room Furniture. Table, (6) chairs, buffet, cupboard. Style: Victorian - Jacobean and Turkish Revival-style. Circa: 1870-1890. Condition: Good/Very Good. Heavy bold carvings, spool and spiral turnings. VICTORIAN - Style named for England's Queen Victoria, who reigned from 1837 to 1901, applied to English and American furniture of that time, particularly in the mid-years of her reign. That furniture takes its cue from and elaborates on rococo and Louis XV style, with exaggerated curves and size, lush upholstery (often in complicated curves and shapes), ellipses, spools, and carvings. Among its hallmarks is horsehair cushioning. JACOBEAN - Style of English furniture during the first half of the 17th century, named for King James I, who reigned from 1603 to 1625. Italianate carving, especially cupboards with arabesques, and the common use of upholstery typify the robust and comfortable style, which continued through the reign of Charles I, from 1625 to 1649. Furniture was recently appraised between $8K and $11K. Copy of appraisal is also available. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=20093&item=2546801673 We are accepting offers. I will stop the auction once an agreement is reached. Dean dimash00@yahoo.com
