My name is Penny and I was wondering if I could get your opinion on a recent find I made? I found what I believe is a 1930s piece, I think it's a two drawer server table. As you can see the condition is a little rough but appears to be really well made. The top piece runner appears slightly bowed but that may be fixable be a local wood restorer (not sure). I tried to include close-ups of all the damage. So my question is really 3 parts:
1) what's it worth in the current condition?
2) Could/should repairs be made and what might be a good estimate on the cost?
3) If I made the repairs, what would it be worth then?
I normally find old pieces and paint them Shabby-chic style, I was going to do that with this piece when I first saw it and resell it for $400-500 with some small repairs made, they would be hidden by my paint. When I saw the emblem I thought I might have something special and an internet search lead me here. Thanks for your time.
Respectfully,
Penny
