Guy Chaddock Country English pedestal Table

Posted by Jay Frucci on Fri, May 04, 2012 @ 04: 17 PM

uimg 4693Our Piece of the Week is an amazing Guy Chaddock custom size English Pedestal dining table with (2) 18" Leaves. Closed the table is a 72" round, but when expanded it extends to 108". With the tucked in pedestal, this table can seat ten people with comfort.

Guy Chaddock is very fine furniture. It is a very customizable product when purchased new and it has a very appealing style. However, it is also quite expensive. In addition, the lead times from the time an order is placed to the time of delivery is very long with Guy Chaddock.

As a result, buying Guy Chaddock on consignment is very smart as you will benefit from great savings and you can have the product right away as there is no wait. This Guy Chaddock table is priced at half of its purchase price at $4,499.

You can find other high end name brand pieces of furniture in our Hanover Furniture Consignment Gallery or in our route 9 Furniture Consignment Gallery in Chestnut Hill.

As one savvy shopper pointed out today, it is more that 1/4 the price of all other available Councill hutches that you could find on-line at e-bay, craigs list and other internet outlets.

Kimball International Ladder Back Chairs

Posted by Jay Frucci on Fri, April 13, 2012 @ 01: 29 PM

0uimg 1728Chair manufacturing has dramatically changed in the last ten years. Not too long ago, crafting a quality chair was a heavily involved and time consuming process. High end manufacturers still take the time to hand carve and custom construct beautiful chairs, but they are labor intensive with skilled craftsman. The end result is a nice chair with a hefty price tag that will look great for generations.
    In the modern era of chair construction, engineered woods are machine turned overseas and packed into a kit that is assembled with hex screws in a warehouse. The result is an inexpensive chair with weak construction. When, the screws loosen and an enthusiastic guest rocks slightly back and forth, your guest may find himself planted on the ground with his chair in pieces.uimg 1730

This set of (8) arm chairs by Kimball International are excellent construction built from solid cherry woods. They are hand carved by skilled craftsman and are extremely sturdy. Furniture makers of yesteryear would praise these chairs. They are an excellent price at $899 for the set which converts to $112 per chair. That is a far cry from the hundreds of dollars you would have to pay for a similar styled and constructed chair in today's marketplace.

You can find excellent prices and great deals like these Kimball International chairs in Hanover's Furniture Consignment Gallery or in Boston's Furniture Consignment Gallery located in Newton's Chestnut Hill village.

Charak Furniture Dining Table

Posted by Jay Frucci on Fri, March 30, 2012 @ 09: 21 PM

0uimg 2213Charak Furniture was one of the premier makers of high end reproduction furniture in the United States during the 1930s. Manufactured in Boston, Charak pieces were wonderfully crafted with solid mahogany and fabulous veneers. The works of true artisans, Charak Furniture is very desiresable among collectors and furniture connoisseurs.

A quick search on ebay will reveal some stout pricing and the demand is evident for such pieces.

uimg 2238

This particular Charak table is an amazing piece as it boasts four leaves and the ends drop down to form a small drop leaf table which is able to fit into even the smallest abodes. But this beauty quickly transitions into a full sized dining table offering great looks, stability and comfort. The carved pedestal base which supports the table top in a symmetric fashion allows for up to eight chairs to surround  a good meal without the frustration of wiggling around table legs or pedestals.

This table has been restored with a hand rubbed, French polish finish and is available for $1,499 in our Hanover Furniture Consignment Gallery. You can also find great dining room table in our Newton Furniture Consignment Gallery.
