    Thank you for that link Tico. A wonderful story that will surely kindle the nostalgic feelings in all of us, I know it did for me. Such a beautiful piece would be very difficult to part with. If I didn’t have the room, off to a storage unit it would go under triple lock and key!

  • That’s a very sad story. Sometimes furniture is so much more than the wood from which it’s made. Fine table too.
