Possible Duncan Phyfe 5 piece furniture set

By victoriart22, 31 October, 2013
Description

5 piece "possible" Duncan Phyfe leather top furniture set.

This furniture set has been passed down a few generations in my family but unfortuantely the person who knew anything or might of known anything about this set has passed.

One other note - All pieces of furniture have a different Gold pattern/design. End tables have the same pattern which match the round drum tables pattern. But coffee table and Executive desk are both different patterns each.

All furniture that has drawers are dovetailed - Confirmed in picture

Have confirmed that all pieces of furniture have no marks or actual engravings/stamps of Duncan phyfe (If that is how they marked Duncan Phyfe furniture ???) but they all have the same number markings on the bottom of the pieces - I am not sure where these are from and have no clue if they are relevant or not to the furniture or appraisal needs.

Currently have:

  • 1 Oval coffee table. No rollers and no drawers. Gold pattern/design engraved or on the leather part of the table (On top). No damage to leather or legs/feet of table.
  • 2 End tables (Matching set) with 2 drawers on each end table. Gold pattern/design engraved or on the leather part of each table (On top), also has a bezel or flower/star type pattern at top of leg on each leg of both tables. Both tables have rollers on all legs/feet. On one end table; it has a ring at the top tier of the table (Maybe from a plate or something that was sat incorrectly on it over the years, noticeable but faint)
  • 1 Round Drum table? with 1 faux drawer on one side and the other side has a long drawer. Gold pattern/design engraved or on the leather part of the table (On top). Carved pattern at the bottom of the pole where legs begin to form and fan out. All feet have rollers and are exactly like end table rollers.
  • 1 Executive style Desk. This piece of furniture is Kidney shaped. Gold pattern/design engraved or on the leather part of desk (On top). There are a total of 8 drawers in this desk.

Re: Possible Duncan Phyfe 5 piece furniture set

Your furniture is in the Federal Revival style and it's unlikely it predates the 1920's. Furniture like this was designed to resemble American Federal style pieces made 1780-1830. The set would sell for more broken up as separate pieces. We'd retail the desk would retail for about $600.00, the end tables 250.00, the drum table about $350.00.
