These pieces are over 100 years old I believe we inherited them from my moms aunt in 1984

I I had been told that they were rotten 10,000 each?

Suzanne m lavoy Oct 15, 13:02 UTC

Does this include all chairs?
4 plus 2 captain equals 6
I find this surprising I was told it was worth more

Thanks for appraising it- I thought it was worth more-

Suzanne, I've updated the appraisal to include the correct number of chairs and yes, the $500-700 was for the whole set; sadly, the secondary / auction market for these is pretty soft at the moment.

Do you have a similar item and want to know how much it’s worth?
