Re: furniture
Walter's of Wabash was a manufacturer of table slides and hardware, I don't have any record of them making furniture.
Here's a link to the company history:

As for the set itself, it's in the Federal Revival style, which has been in and out of production since the turn of the 19th century, at auction comparable sets often sell for under $800.00.
