Two finds!




Started the day with a visit to the joiners shop , second coat of undercoat on one more and they are ready for putting in.

Then picked up a couple of pieces today from the local auction house , a wing back chair to be covered in the "laagaphule" tweed , dropped it off with an old mate who is the a top upholsterer , then back for the second lot a chest of drawers inlaid with ebony , thought they were ok but someone had replaced the handles with some shitty brass ones , stopped off at the french polishers who thought they were a steal , has the correct handles for the drawers and going to do a minor restoration project on them.

Then met Lou at the farm and gained her seal of approval for all I have been doing

Bingo another great day!
