Re: Jefferson Table Slide by The Jefferson Woodworking Co. ...
Suites of this type are in what's called the "Colonial Revival" style. Colonial Revival pieces are reproductions of the original American furniture originally produced from 1620-1780, based on English pieces.
The style became popular after the first Centennial of the American Revolution in 1876. At that time interest and demand for original Colonial & Federal furnishings was so great it outstripped supply.This caused large manufacturers to begin production of pieces in the Colonial and Federal styles from the Jacobean to Duncan Phyfe.
The style reached it's peak of popularity during the mid 1920's, but pieces of this type remained in production through the early 1940's, and were revived again in the 1980's. Tables and chairs of this type remain in production to this day. Values for them are generally under $450.00 at auction.
