What does this mean?

Good morning, Adam,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This is an American sideboard; the white pine in the drawer sides suggests that, and it appears to be of the period, circa 1800. Quite a nice thing...these used to bring several thousand dollars but it is a very formal piece of furniture...not many people dine so formally anymore...or have a dedicated dining room for one.

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

An American Federal inlaid mahogany bowfront sideboard
Probably New England, circa 1800
Height 41 1/2 inches; Width 58 1/2 inches; greatest depth 20 inches (at center)
PROVENANCE: Acquired at Therien & Co Antiques, San Francisco, CA, circa 1995
CONDITION: appears to be commensurate with age and use.
$1,500-2,500*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price (such as seen on 1stDibs or Chairish) may vary.
