Value? Twin Bedroom Suite: manufactured by National Furniture Company, Mt Airy, NC

By Norton69, 28 June, 2015
Description

A large set of furniture:

2 Twin bed frames including headboards, footboards and rails.

1 High boy dresser with 2 small top drawers and 3 large bottom drawers

1 Vanity tilt mirror

1 wall mirror approx 2'x3' with matching detail

1 Dressing table (with bench)

1 Night Stand

This was my grandmother's bedroom set used by her and my grandfather when they married in 1921 until she passed away in 1983. (I remember spending the night when I was a child and sleeping in grandpa's bed. He died before I was born) It passed to and was used by my mother and step dad until her death in 1999, and now to me/my children.

As my children are grown and gone, and I would like to downsize, I wonder if there is any value in this set?

It definitely shows much wear and tear.

I have more photos of the other pieces, I'm just trying to get an idea of what I could do with this set, and how much I could possibly sell for. With some elbow grease it could be quite lovely. I haven't the inclination or time. Willing to sell.
