I don;t remember seeing a Limbert piece like this one.. Wonderful piece .. Is there a stamp on the bottom ?? Or small initials ? Probably on the under side of the base..

Unfortunately there is no discernable stamp anywhere. Here's a costumer identified as a Limbert, with the same cruciform style base, but with through tenons. Maybe mine is simply by a different maker but with some elements 'borrowed'.

Hello Stonecat,
Looking through my Antiques and collectibles books, and my furniture guides I can not find anything that resembles your hall tree by Limbert. It may be a replica by another designer, however it does have some distinct value. Is there a stamp or mark anywhere? I would like to get better acquainted with you so if you would email me at Ralj7@AOL.com or click onto my addy on the bottom below my signature and go to my tutorial web site. Respectfully, Ralph Jones www.ralphjoneswoodworking.com |

UPDATE
I sent these pics and a quick note to Jerry Cohen of Craftsman Auctions, and his quickie appraisel was probaly not Limbert but still a decorative piece valued 200-300 |

Another update
- found this one while surfing around - same cruciform style base, seems like a semi-common design now! |
