Drexel Dining Room Set

By jsm7567, 23 March, 2008
Description

I would like to know the estimated selling value of this furniture set I inherited from my Grandmother.  It is Drexel. It includes 8 chairs (reupholstered), 44" wide table with three 12" inserts, buffet and china abinet.  All are in excellent working order with slight fading on one side of the table.  This is solid wood although I do not know if it is cherry or not (I believe so).  I do not know much about furniture.  I need help appraising this before I sell it.
