My parents bought this buffet table at a estate auction where the owner had passed away. She's had it looked at by some people online and they don't believe it was in a ordinary home. It's about 8ft tall 7 ft wide and hand carved. We don't know much else about it so any information someone might have would be great! Thanks so much for viewing!
There is so much 'stuff' all over this piece of furniture it's difficult to see it. Do you plan to continue displaying it this way?
Its at my moms house, i can try to see if i can get her to send me some other pictures but they are in the middle of moving so stuff is everywhere lol
Thank you so much for going to the trouble to get that photo - thank your mum for me. I believe it's a really ornate Victorian side board.
Here's one that is much simpler, but same basic idea.

And one that's a little more intricate - and huge.

You might need to have an antique dealer/appraiser decide whether it's hand carved or not. It really has some lovely work.
No problem, she had the pictures on her phone from when the first bought it. Thank you so much! She love's it and really wants to find out who made it but we were told that would be impossible.
I hope she continues to enjoy it, and best of luck with the move.
