Re: Robbins Table Company est.1873 (tiger striped walnut)

You table is actually quartercut oak and dates from the turn of the 19th century. Oak was the most widely used wood during this period.  Tables like this were all the rage back in the 1980's, but demand and values for them have been in decline since the 1990's, we retail comparable tables in very good condtion for less than $800.00.
