This is an abraham and straus gateleg drop leaf table. unknown how old it is. But i recently saw a william and mary gateleg drop leaf table go for $88,000 at an auction. The legs on both these tables are the same however the only difference is mine is rectangle.
Nesting Tables with markings of True Grand Rapids Cabinet Making I-32707 TRADEMARK BL 344 Made in Grand Rapids 2151 Imperial Grand Rapids, Mich. The number 55 is stamped into the wood.
These do show wear and usage - scratches, a couple chips on the edge, water rings, etc. The top has curved sides, while the middle and bottom tables are rectangular. The top has the floral design around the edge as well as in the center, while the middle and bottom table has the design around the edge only.
They appear to be painted a glossy black, with gold and green coloring in the flowers. There are also gold edges as well as gold accents on the table legs.
have searched everywhere on internet and cannot find this pattern. Similar to some other Oneida Community Sterling Silver patterns, but nothing exactly the same. Help Please as I have a service for 12 of this pattern including the serving pieces. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
I was looking to get it appraised it was given to me a couple of yrs ago I just flipped it over and saw the stamp on it I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this table??? The stamp on the bottom reads Lane Altavista VA Regus Pat off style no. 1927 serial no. 958230
