the table has large leather area inlaid into the top. the table can expand by pulling the ends apart. when expanded, there is a center section that fit between, with a copper pan about the size of a rectangular cookie sheet/pan used to bake cookies. the legs arch out: there are a total of 8 legs that separate when the table is extended. each leg has a small caster on it. the wood is dark and all solid, put together with large flat headed screws. i dont notice any unusal joint techniques. any idea of the age and value of this piece? thanks for any help.
Wow, you should research this yourself online. Or look up antique dealers. I refinished every kind of wooden object known to man and I have never heard of this. Don't get shafted-I'd buy it in a second.(I had a set with leather inserts and gold trim once)
Value is defined as what someone is willing to pay for something. To me your table would be worth nothing. To someone else it may be worth hundreds. It sounds like it's probably antique. I'd get an antique furniture apraisal book and start there.
