Solid oak table with 6 chairs and two leafs
I have owned this furniture for about thirty years. It’s been in storage for about twenty. When I did use it I had a glass top on the table do it is in good shape. A couple of chairs need to be glued back together.
I don’t know too much about the history of the furniture, but I did have it restored when I first got it by an old antique shop that is no longer in business. Back then (around 30 years ago) he appraised the chairs around 250 each, and honestly I don’t remember the appraisal of the table whether it was 5000 or 10000. I have pictures I can send.

Thanks, Dennis,
The market for antiques has softened considerably; it's not uncommon for things to be worth a fraction - even 1/10th the original value - and table and chairs (together and individually) are currently bringing the auction values I've appraised yours at.
I'm happy to include dimensions if you want them included - just message them to me here. Otherwise, you're all set.
Good Morning Delia,
I have added more pictures and realized that i don't have 8 chairs I have 6. It wouldn't allow me to update that
