<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 399110, member: 5066"]Getting back to Flexner, I think his main argument is, when a piece of antique furniture or any piece of furniture really gets demoted out of the house to the attic, basement, barn, etc. it's chances of survival are GREATLY reduced. If that is correct & i think it is, anything that helps to keep it in the house (yes, including painting it shabby chic) is a good thing. Paint can always be removed but once a piece is lost, it's gone forever.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
