Mersman drum/side table
I do not know anything about this as it was in my grandfather's home for years. We had to remove everything when he passed away and would like information and the value on this table.

Re: Mersman drum/side table
Tables of this type generally date from the first quarter of the 20th Century, but remained in and out of production following the dictates of fashion for the next 50 years. The style is what's referred to as the 'Federal Revival style'. The style getting its name because such pieces used stylist motifs found on American Colonial furniture originally made 1780-1820. Mersman was a huge producer of tables, the largest producer of small tables of this type in the USA. This one is quite modern, value , about $100.00 at auction.
