Is it true?
Obviously you bought something on a sellers word. I wonder why you would buy something without authenticating it? No disrespect intended but if you plan to spend money wouldn't you want to know for sure up front what it is?
Probably a little later maybe 1850 but very French in style. Word of warning though, these things are nearly impossible to sell at the moment. Tried to get rid of one last year, literally couldn't give it away.Offered it to a dealer for free if he would just come and take it and he told me it wasn't worth travelling 8 kms to pick it up! Eventually I gave it to a local farmer to use as storage in one of his barns.
Life shouldn't only be about $ & ¢, sometimes we buy for love and ask questions later.

Clearing my posts and going my way but you are right.
I agree 100% TA but with very large pieces like this we can't buy too many on impulse.
