The style seems to be Spanish Provincial. In my area no one wants this kind of furniture anymore. We had to pay someone to take away a French provincial bedroom. Hopefully you will have better luck.
These are most likely 1970s pieces. I love this article that talks about why this furniture style was so important back then:
They called it Spanish or Mediterranean style in the ads and it was to ad a layer of mystic to the home!
As to value, that is tough. In most places in the US they are not selling. White French Providential has made a slight dent in the resale market on the east coast, but the brown Spanish style has yet to get a new foothold.
If you have a good vintage furniture resale shop in your town, I would approach them and see what they would offer you for them or if they would sell them on consignment for you.
They will know what they fetch in your town and can price accordingly AND get the most exposure without having people traipsing in and out of your house to look at them.
My guess is like every other trend, these will become in fashion again, is just right now, they are not.
Post back with an update!
