brown furniture
by: tudor polishers

You`re absolutely correct in your assessment.
It`s what we call "brown" furniture in england and you`ll find piece`s up and down the uk,although may i add that the item shown is of a better quality than most iv come across.
may i say what an informative site this is,you can never stop learning.
From now on i shall be a regular viewer of this site and will inform my friends.

Hello John
by: Stephane

Hi John,

I think we are looking at a quit "modern" side cabinet (sideboard). I would say this is made just after WOII, when this type of "style" furniture was popular in Europe. Probably this belonged to a complete dining room set?! It would be helpful if I we could see a picture from the inside or the back of the drawers, because of what I see at the bottom of the right door, there seem to be some veneer chipped off. Usually this type of furniture was machine made and had veneers and carvings pasted on a cheaper solid wood carcass. I think u could sell this for around 150-200 euro.

I hope this was helpful.

All the best,
Stephane.
