    unusual find but could be good!

    Picked up this box of antique ornate table legs at a yard sale yesterday. Some are in decent shape, some are not.

    Anyone have any idea how to sell these? Where to sell these? How much could this stuff be worth?

    Thanks!

    I would do a search for Architectural salvage. I sell to a place in Columbus. How much you get depends on what they need at the time. Good luck and let us know how much you get.

    I think some of those may be chair legs. I see several chair stretchers in that lot. Good luck.

    I think you are correct which is why in my ads I put "antique chair or table legs/feet". I already have a couple people watching the auction so I am hopeful.

    Nice cabriole legs! I would take them to your local WoodCraft store. At the one near me there is a bulletin board which offers tools, wood, services, etc. Some woodworker would love to buy 'em.

    I have the 4 matching ones on ebay with several "watchers" already. The rest of the lot is on CL with no hits yet...
