Re: dining room set

Can't say for sure but the style of the buffet, chairs and china hutch strongly resemble J.L. Metz Furniture Company of Chicago. What doesn't fit, at least for me, and maybe someone else can comment, is the table base. Although it appears to be from the same company, I have only ever seen these "triad" type bases on tables out of the 70's, but I may be wrong. The design on the front of the buffet, the handles, the whole design of the china hutch, all suggest Metz furniture. Older Metz furniture had a stand up, more decorative stretcher at the bottom of the buffet and china hutch. Yours are quite plain. May mean constructed later?? Metz sold out in the 70's and I understand quality went down, but have not actuallu verufied that.
