New Owner to Old Reitzel's Dining Set

I recently received a small inheritance from my grandfather's estate. I knew I wanted to buy something special in honour of him, so I started looking at antique furniture. I found a seller wanting to make a forced sale of his Reitzel's dining set, which consists of a hutch, sideboard, and table (no chairs). I am kind of research-y girl and have been trying to find information about Reitzel's online, and I'm not having much success. I have discovered that my set bears many striking similarities to sets made by other companies - I wonder if there is a connection? Wondering if anyone can help me learn more about my new furniture?

Thanks!
