Need help to id stickley lamp table. It needs some TLC. The only marking I can find is on one of the legs. It looks like an old wood glue clamp. I can only make out what looks like the last 3 letters "LEY". Any help would be appreciated.
I have other photos but could post them.
Thanks

Need measurements but you could look at L & J. G. #573 which has a 18 inch top or #575 with a 24 inch top the next size up is a #577 30 in.

Leoppold, John, & George Stickley were brothers to Gustave. If my memory serves me right. The wood clamp is one of the marks that L&JG Stickley used on this model table.

Daltons sold a similar table to yours. Check out the link.

Daltons sold items

Scroll down and you will find it.

Best,

The best shop mark site I've found for Stickley is http://www.stickleymuseum.com/...arksHistory&more=yes

You should be able to find the one on your table and then identify who, what, when and where the table was made.

Auction results show that the smaller sizes have been sold for just under 1K. The condition does not appear so bad.

Best,

What needs to be repaired? From the pictures, it looks like it needs to be cleaned with mineral spirits and waxed. Don't do anything foolish, now!

Are the boards cupped as well as separated? Or is the table flat?

It's funny. The top is cupped, but when I check the bottom they are straight and level.

Interesting... Depending on how bad it is I would just leave it. But I tend to be more of a purist and have a greater appreciation (or tolerance) of wear than others. But we all have our limits.

Do you think it could be covered with a period textile or hand tooled mat? That could help disguise the problem. If you can't find antique pieces, there are many contemporary craftspeople who can make what you want. Check out the Marketplace, you'll find great info:

If it needs to be restored, and as you're in CT, I would contact Jerry Cohen at the Mission Oak Shop in Putnam. He can probably recommend someone.

We do have some old Period Lamps. But I would like to see if it could be repaired at a reasonable cost, if thats possible these days. Otherwise I might just sell as is...
Thanks
Al

Ohhh, if your planing to sell the table then I wouldn't bother to fix it. You will make more money selling it as is. Let the buyer decide if he or she wants to fix it. They might just want it as is.

Thank Again,
Mark & Melissa
