    I inherited this table from my great grandmother. When we got it, it was covered in several layers of 'white wash'. I was told that my GGrandmother bought it from 'The Sears and Roebuck'. She was born in 1888, so I'd estimate she bought this around 1910 maybe? That's a pretty vague guess tho, so I could very well be wrong.
    Anyway, the legs are in 2 sets, with each set attached at the top. The feet aren't small dainty eagle claws. They're pretty big with large claws on them. Each foot is resting on a small wooden like ball or roller.

    If anyone has an idea of the year this table was made I'd really appreciate it.

    thank you,

      I added photos to a Part II to this post.
      The wheels are very solid. Not sure what they're made of tho.
      I'll try using a magnet and see if they're metal.
