    I love my table. My parents bought it a few years after the war, when new furniture wasn't obtainable easily. And in any event, they liked old stuff. It's a simple mahogany tip tilt with the dust of decades in the grooved edges and a patina you only get from centuries of use. It's got an old repair, done in about the 1850s which adds to it, I think. It has this sort of soft glow to it and feels soft, too.

    Goodness, that sounds lovely! What a treasure. How wonderful that your parents had the forethought to get it when they did. I love that you appreciate it so much too.
    Thanks again for your help with my chair!
