ONLINE AUCTION ITEM # 115 Two drawer high boy dresser. this is a lovely piece, but it does have an additional story that irritates me to no end. The boys are great teens and almost always helpful but at times, careless and thoughtless.

As the boys were helping offload, one of them placed something on this dresser and scratched the hell out of it’s surface, and it is now going to need a furniture doctor!

I haven’t had time to take care of this detail, but I will upload photos and see if I can’t get someone to consult on how to take care of this scratch on the dresser top, my soul will be happy.

ONLINE AUCTION ITEM # 107. Trestle style wood Dining Table Germanic style; solid wood; 63L X 36"W X 29" H.

Mike built this table. The woodworking and crafting book that Mike took direction from is currently part of a large collection of books that we will put some thought into, as to how to disperse.

This table is stunning. The workmanship is beautiful and whomever bids on this, this will be a lovely addition to the new owners. The ironwork in the table is really impressive. IF I didn’t have a dining room table and IF I could bid on this, I would. I love it!


Minimum bid $100đź’ś.
