| Ellen my table came to me through a friend...we were at an auction and she just purchased a new set and mentioned that she now needed to get rid of hers. I asked if I could take a look and fell in love with it. It is very old and came with 4 chairs and a hutch. It has a leaf that when you pull it apart the leaf folds out from underneath. It has to be refinished...still. I got the hutch redone a few years ago and hopefully this summer I will work on the table. The chairs are old mission chairs and are so heavy but they are beautifully worn on the arm rests and bottom foot rung from years of wear. We needed more than 4 chairs so I was able to find an old church pew at a garage sale for 20 dollars and it works perfect! The entire set cost me 200 dollars. I am a lover of old things. May not be my history but I love it still the same
Hugs debbie
