Weekend Scavenger: MCM I can get behind...



1st Dibs is running a new Saturday Sale - kind of a high end, virtual, barn sale. This week they feature this completely fantasy worthy French 1950's Rosewood & Glass Cabinet that I could almost be willing to cash in my retirement account for. (well, you know, if there was anything left of it, that is...).

Now, I'm not a big Mid-Century Modern person, but oh... the wood graining, with alternate inlaid woods, the subtle scalloping and the tapered legs make this piece a beautiful and highly feminine work of art.

Here are a few other little lovies, also from Craig Van Den Brulle:

They are all very beautiful...and from an era where good craftsmanship and quality was the norm.

Very interesting Joni - thanks for the link... Well, the antiques world has always been filled with dishonesty - after all - as a buyer, you have to trust that the seller is a reputable source!
