Antique Sleigh Bed; PLEASE HELP, MOVING SOON!

By rafterh, 29 July, 2008
Description

My mom bought this at an antique mall in Granbury, TX in the early 90s. I don't know how much she paid. It appears to be veneer. It has beautiful inlay work on the footboard. It was gold so I started to refinish it. I don't know if it was originally gold or painted later. I got impatient(as teenagers do) and only did the front. I'm downsizing my home and wanted to sell it, but don't know anything about it(age, wood, maker, etc.) or its worth.

 PLEASE HELP! I'M MOVING SOON!
