Has anyone heard of L. Marcus Ltd. in London, England, who created
furniture circa 1949?

I purchased a dining room piece, and would love to know what other
things they created and what those pieces look like.

I don't know if it's good or bad that on all the internet I could find
no mention of this manufacturer or pieces for sale made by them.

Any thoughts?

If it is still of any interest, my wife's parents bought a sideboard from them in the 50s/60s and it was, apparently, quite expensive. Shortly afterwards the company ceased making this kind of furniture and started making office furniture. I believe
the reason was they could no longer compete on price. As for the comment in another post about it being 'machine made', I've looked this over and the panelling looks hand carved to me though I can't speak for the carcass. You can still buy handmade
furniture in furniture stores and over the years I've seen craftsmen from Bevan & Funnell, Rackstraw and others demonstrating their craft at in-store special events. I've only ever seen one other similar piece and that had been 'renovated' and then
painted.

Hi,I have a piece of furniture by this company, it's a tall shoe hat and coat stand with mirror. I have no idea how old it is or what wood it is.
It has the original stamp with London address on the back.

Regards

Hello,
I know this is an old post so I hope it gets to you. I also have a piece of that furniture, like a side dresser, with the exact same info as yours. Did you ever find out its worth or how to know how old it is?
Thank you
Teresa
