| Hi,
I do not know how to go about finding info such as value and how to sell my Trouvailles china cabinet. I was told my grandmother bought it new for $6000.00. I don't know when. Any info or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, Beth |

| Thanks for your reply. I did see that posting. How do they know what to sell a piece for? Do I just start with furniture appraisers in the phone book? |

| I would do some looking o n he web...in case you don't know, Trouvailles is a furniture company dedicated to making fine reproductions of very fine antique pieces. David Israel an authority on antique furniture started the company. I would google around and look for other Trouvailles pieces and see if you can find a general idea of price and better yet a place to advertise your cabinet. The company has only been making furniture since some time after WW II, so it's not old....but I am sure very VERY nice! Must you sell it? Linda C |
