When I started in the antique business in California, I was shocked at how many American pieces of nice furniture that were not marked at all. When I found a matched pair of Charles Stickley oak rockers stamped in the back as such, I bought them and put them in my living room. I’ve got a very large UK 19th C arts and crafts style buffet without marks in my dining room. How do I get a picture to you for your ideas on the maker (the auction I bought it from said that it was a MacIntosh or MacIntosh inspired piece.
I am considering the purchase of a lovely 3 part pull apart wardrobe made by Bedel & Cie. Id prefer it to have some potential to increase in value however I am clueless in regards to antique furniture and haven't found much information online about the maker.
