Got a picture ? I was wondering what kind of furniture would be timeless, as most consider old fancy furniture as tacky.
If it's plain, i can imagine it without a pic :)
It's a hay rake design by some guy called Barnsley... Arts & Crafts movement. Plain oak top, 7'x3' ish, dovetail fit to oak hay rake frame which is wooden pinned together. The top has been abused over the years but being oak it just absorbs the abuse and turns it into character!
There is one in the same style in Cheltenham museum (UK) but mine is nicer. My cousin has its twin.
Thanks. I googled it and yea, just as i thought. Lately i was thinking about how one would make long lasting furniture and this fits perfectly.
