Size and dimensions of this item:
32" wide X 48" (extending to 58")
History:
I received this set when my grandmother passed away. She had this for as long as I can remember. I thought many years ago I had seen a name underneath which returned to a Dayton man who made Catholic furniture in the early 1900's. I loaned the set to my sister and when I got it back I could no longer find the name. I reupholstered the chairs over ten years ago. I believe I left the original fabric underneath but I am not sure.

I attached pictures including an upclose photo of the detail on the hutch.

The table is a dark brown color. It is circle and did come with one leaf to make it larger and oval. It has four chairs that are low backed and have arms.

Is this dining set Jacobean? How much is it worth?
My 82 yr. old mother is moving to a retirement home and the dining set is to large for her new, smaller place. I have attached jpg pictures. Sorry they are not the best quality.

Oak dining table and 4 chairs. Metal plate on table base, under removable table top reads, "FH Marshall & Co Ltd". Serial# 132384, Mfg in Scotland. The oak leafs slide in and out. The chairs had been recovered by the previous owner. One chair had been repaired at the top. I'm thinking about giving this item to charity, but wanted to first check it's possible value.

History:
Inherited/was in an attic for decades
Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png):
Ornate Asian table. Seems to have black lacquer over bamboo or some other type of wood. Has three ceramic-type disks on top. The ceramic disks are mozaic and the images are engraved into the disks (fish scales are engraved, for example) The disks are not painted, but are made up of bunch of different materials to make the images. The pink flower design is recessed into the wood and has a paperlike texture. All other designs in the wood are recessed as well (edging, vines).
