Eastlake bedroom furniture

Hi Lisa,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This is a lovely set; I imagine it had a bed at one time that would have looked quite splendid with the other three pieces (and possibly a tall chest and a boudoir chair). Unfortunately, the market for these is pretty soft at the moment as people don't furnish their houses as formally as they used to. The value is in line with what similarly sized marble-top Eastlake sets have brought at auction in the past 2-3 years.

Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:

An antique Eastlake walnut and marble three-piece bedroom suite
American, late 19th Century, comprising:
- Bureau of rectangular section with beveled hinged tilting mirrors over a marble-top case fitted with three drawers, on casters (overall height 6 feet [72 inches]; width 36 inches, depth 18 inches)
- Dry sink of rectangular section, the marble top with raised backsplash, over a case fitted with one long drawer over two short drawers and a cupboard, on casters (overall height 31-1/2 inches, width 22-1/2 inches, depth 17 inches)
- Marble top side table of rectangular section, the marble top under a molded frame with corner pendants, raised on a single quadrupartite column on four legs, on casters (overall height 31-1/2 inches, width 22-1/2 inches, depth 17 inches)
CONDITION: This bedroom set appears to be in good condition with minor wear commensurate to age and use.
PROVENANCE: Inherited
$ 1,000-1,500 for the set*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.

Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto.
