Antique Side Chair
This very old, but lovely, solid and sturdy, hand carved wooden chair is in need of staining or paint. A cushioned seat has been added, newly reupholstered in an African print motif. $45
Old, Solid Wood Desk
Very solid, heavy, hardwood desk in great condition except for need of stripping or a coat of paint and maybe some funky, new knobs. Note the very nicely scalloped detail at the bottom, as well as the curved inset for the center (pen/pencil) drawer, probably made in the 1940's or before. All seven of the drawers pull out and push in with ease. The side drawers are deep and will hold tons of supplies, making this a perfect work area for an art student or hip, home office exec. $75

Antique Mirror Back Cabinet
A beautifully aged and well-preserved solid wood cabinet with a mirrored back and wood shelves. It is adorned with rounded glass panes on each side of the hinged door. The door swings out to reveal a spacious interior with 3 shelves that have grooves in them to accommodate standing displays of plates or other items and collectibles. There is also a decorative carving and finial at the top of the cabinet, giving this unique antique its French country feel. By the style and construction-design of the cabinet (plus how long it's been in our family), it is at least 60 years old-- perhaps a lot older. Some wear and minor scratches, easily covered with a good furniture pen. $125
24" high x 20.5" wide x 8” deep
