How do I identify a furniture manufacturer?
1 Answer

To identify a furniture manufacturer, examine inconspicuous areas of a piece in search of a maker's mark. On case goods, these marks may be on the base, back or inside of a drawer. Tables, desks and chairs may be marked on their legs or bases or on the undersides of their tops or seats. Makers may add their marks to the cushions, frames or legs of sofas and loveseats, while beds often display marks on their rails or headboard backs. Once you find the marking, you can perform an online search or a reverse image search using a photo to identify the maker. If you need help at any point in the process, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer can assist you. Find a large selection of antique, vintage and contemporary furniture on 1stDibs.
