I always try to educate my granddaughter on what to look for in quality furniture construction that will last a lifetime. I always tell her to look for the mortise and tenon and dovetail joints.
I understand that 100% oh, my wife is a big shabby chic finisher I have to beg her not to paint some of these beautiful piecesSadly, "brown furniture" has become nearly impossible to sell and the larger pieces languish for months and years on sales floors. A lot of it has been "updated" with chalk paint and sand paper in order to make it saleable. I'm glad I am out of that business altogether now. Sad.
Always interested hereI love old pine furniture but it has gone out of style. My favorite was a pine hutch in a butler's pantry that took gallons of death dealing stripper to get the lead based primer off. I suspect the hutch was removed when the new owners of the house renovated the kitchen. I have a similar hutch from my Grandmother that I don't have room for anymore and can't find an interested buyer.
