Subject:George Zee bar
Posted By: Jan Wed, Nov 05, 2003 My in-laws have what I would call a bar - it is hand carved and completely closes up. Manufacturer is George Zee & Co., "kiln dried art carved furniture manufacturers." The no. on it is 59-53727. Am wondering if this is an antique or if it is a reproduction? I do not have a picture of it, sorry. Thanks. |

Posted By: Anthony M. Lee Thu, Nov 20, 2003 No reason to believe it is other than George Zee, mid 20th century. |

Posted By: Judy Sun, Nov 23, 2003 Hi. Saw your recent post. I have a beautiful bar that sounds like what the woman wrote about, and would like to find out more about George Lee and Company. The furniture is exquisite. My husband's uncle brought this piece back from WWII, after a Hong Kong trip, on an aircraft carrier. There was also an incredible coffee table, which we don't have. Is the company still in existence, and do they have a web site? |

Posted By: Pablo Serrano Thu, Apr 17, 2008 I recently acquired a George Zee Teak Chest and I'm trying to figure out the year it was made/how much it's worth.

Posted By: Deborah Black Sun, Aug 27, 2017 I have not seen any mention of value of any of these teak chests....does anyone know. Since there are so many available, I'm assuming not a huge amount.

Posted By: Bill Jochimsen Sun, Dec 13, 2009 Hello, my name is Angel. My boyfriend has several pieces of George Zee furniture that his father acquired while overseas in the early 1960's. He has a chest, a bar and a console stereo that still works. If you are interested, email me and I will send you some pictures. We have tried quite a few times to find out more information on these pieces but have been unsuccessful. The closest I got was getting his granddaughter's email address. She said she has no idea of the value on the items. We are planning on moving soon and would like to sell some of the pieces before we move. Please contact me soon if you are interested. |

Posted By: Fay Shaw Sat, Oct 08, 2022 Hi. I thought I would give a little insight to researching prices for George Zee pieces. They can be found on Chairish.com, 1st dibs, eBay, Etsy and craigslist. The prices vary. My niece sent me an ad for one on Facebook marketplace. It, a dry bar, was listed at 800.00 OBO. I offered 600.00 and she accepted. I also found a set of nesting tables for 112.00. Shipping was what cost me the most. Just do searches on those websites and come to your own conclusion. Good luck! |
