I've hung onto this table for many years. I bought it at a Flea market post divorce and it served me well for a few years. Then it got stored and moved and its time to find it a good home.

I know enough to know it's a great brand and built well. Where do I start with it's value given the stains? Is it worth trying to restore before selling?

Hi, I was at an auction a while ago and purchased this rocker for no more than 30 dollars. It is a smaller rocker, the right size for my preteen grandson to sit and play his video games. I was dusting it and happened to see the circled CB mark which I really didn't pay much attention to. Windsor Style Conant Ball Low Rocker?

 

I was sitting here today and just kind of looking at the chair and decided to see what I could find out about the chair. Which brought me to your site. I see many rocking chairs made by Conant and Ball but not this particular one. Can you give me any information about this rocking chair. It is smaller but not a child's rocker, Windsor in shape but it has a support bar in the middle. Thank for your anticipated response.

I recently inherited a Conant Ball pedestal table. From all the pictures I found online, it appears to be completely original. I'm trying to find an approximate value in case I want to sell it.

It came with two leafs as well. Thank you.

I have what I believe is a Conant Ball desk that I bought at a yard sale years ago because I liked its style, not knowing anything about the furniture maker. Because we have now downsized and not knowing its value, it has been in our garage for a few years. My husband has always wanted me to get rid of it and I almost donated it. An old wooden desk.

 

It is in pretty good condition with little damage except for some cosmetic issues that I think can be refurbished easily. My question is, how can I determine if it is a genuine Conant Ball? I have attached two pictures; one of the desk (in my garage) and the other is of the logo in the drawer. At this time, because of its location these are the best pictures I could get.

Thank you for any information. If you believe it is genuine, I will certainly try to fix it up and I would like to sell it.

I look forward to your response, Carrie Allen

It does appear that your desk was made by Conant Ball.
However, just having a well-known brand name on an item does not make it valuable.
You only provided one picture of your desk, which is never enough to try to place a value on almost anything.

Pictures needed: full front of desk - uncluttered; top of desk showing all flaws; full side of desk; any flaws; such as missing trim, flaws to legs, etc.

You mention 'refurbished easily' and that may be true if you're refurbishing it for yourself or as a 'garage desk' but certainly not if you're expecting to sell it as a medium-high value Conant Ball desk.
Refurbishing a desk like this would mean a complete overhaul of the desk by someone that does refurbishing of similar items several times a year. It is not an easy or quickly done job. It also means replacing missing or flawed trim in same wood as original.
Also, the top is supposed to be a 'desk top' and that would mean the top should be very smooth; no nicks, or holes, just a smooth writing surface.

All drawers should glide easily and be very clean inside.
Since you say your desk has been in your garage for several years, this would mean it has been exposed to changes in weather conditions and a desk like this was never made to withstand dampness or extreme heat.
If you check the desk and look at it honestly, you'll probably decide that, as it stands, your desk is being used as well as can be expected.
If you decide to refurbish your desk, please ask your question again and someone will try to help you determine a value.
There are lots of videos on YouTube on how to refurbish a desk, so be sure to check those for help.

Hello, I have this Conant Ball couch and am wondering: approximately how much is it worth, and should I upholster it before selling?

It came with some really nasty cushions so I wonder whether I'm better off buying new upholstered cushions or letting a buyer take care of it to their taste.A wooden sofa with a woven seat.

 

Also, any tips on year of manufacture would be much appreciated!

Many thanks

Conant ball is an excellent furniture and holds its value year after year. Tables like this can sell for around 500-700 dollars depending on where you live and where you sell the table. The only problem with selling wood furniture right now is your location. The price in your area will actually determine how much this table is worth. In some states, the value of wood furniture is so low that a person would be lucky to get around 100 dollars for this table. Now in other states, a person can get around 200-300 dollars for the same table. Selling online is very hard because there is a lot of items listed there now and it makes it hard because you need to add the shipping cost on top of the selling cost.

Now trying to box up a large item like this and ship it off to the buyer is very hard. What I would do is check around your area, look on Craigslists, and see if anyone is selling similar furniture in your area and see how much they are asking for this piece. You can also try to go to a used furniture store and see how much they are asking for similar pieces. This will really help you to determine the value of this furniture for your area.
