This poor little Victorian chair sat at a shop for over a year. Gorilla glue oozing from its broken joints. Too weak to hold a sitter. Too purple to fit in today's world of tan decor.
My style is primitive. Chairs such as this belong in a Mississippi Riverfront mansion like my friend in Missouri owns, not a log cabin on a creek in Alabama.
Yet, even a primitive furniture person such as myself can't help but see beauty where beauty is.
So I offered $30. The lady said that will be fine.
Well, this is quite the contrast I must say, but not to worry. I'm planning a glorious Victorian-Empire secret salon boudoir room in my next house. Closed door; invitation only.
Somebody had to love it, bless your heart. Thanks for the shout out. Richard, On the Mississippi, in Missouri Mansion
ReplyDeleteI really like that chair and still like the purple covering which makes it attractive and I can see it on a grand river boat or a victorian room today
ReplyDeleteThat gorilla glue never worked for me on anything Never buy it
