Decoding the value and history of antique and vintage furniture can be challenging. While a careful review of an item’s defining characteristics such as materials used, shape, and decorative flourishes can help you get a general idea regarding the age of a piece, a maker’s mark, if present, can help you pinpoint an item’s specific history, such as when and where it was produced and by whom.
