Featured Thrift store furniture

Not damaged other than case needs re-gluing at the base. I will be tempted if it goes to half price. Thought about making an offer on just the hardware if they would consider it.

 

Another occasional table. This one has had the veneer stripped and the top refinished. Real sturdy and good overall appearance. $19.00.


And another rocker..... This one is a renaissance revival walnut platform rocker. Condition and upholstery are immaculate. A little pricey for resale at $30.00 but a good buy if you want one for yourself. Will be interesting to see how long this one lasts.

 

If someone pregnant finds it....swishgone. Otherwise it'll be there a while.

 

I actually really like that barley twist table.

 

More thrift store finds. I didn't purchase any of them.

This walnut bed is only $35.00. Has one board replaced on the headboard but otherwise good.



This table and chair set is $60. Table has no leaves but split base is no problem. Really a nice little set.



This is a cut down parlor table for use as a coffee table. Priced at $45.00.


Another table and chair set. Oak pedestal table with three leaves is a little rough. I think the 6 chairs are killer. The upholstery is in good shape and even not completely horrible. Priced at $119.00.

 

I hope somebody finds those and hauls 'em all off. That's pennies on the dollar compared to that new solid wood furniture.

 

This was at my local thrift on Monday, Was marked down from 200 to 180
@verybrad there is some real treasures out there.

very unusual piece!

 

The seat has storage under it. And those inserts are very heavy. Cast iron?

Could very well be cast iron.

 

Looks to be same chair for sale at a PA antique shop, listed as a Victorian Music Chair c. 1870s. Was $375, on sale for $280

 

Or close enough anyway. I'd call it a look only Ghopper could love.

 

That might be stretching it a bit…..

 

It could be worse; someone could have painted it purple!

 

A few more things to show. Didn't buy any of them :-(

This pair of chairs was $12.00.


This rocker was only $8.00. Even so, it took a few weeks to sell.


These 4 hitchcock chairs were really in decent condition. Priced at $4.00 each.


This chest of drawers had some minor veneer loss as seen in the pic. Otherwise, a nice solid piece with all drawers working nicely. Priced at $45.00, it did take a couple weeks to sell.


Now for something completely different. These doors were originally $30.00 each. Reduced to $22.50 when I took the pics. The first sold pretty quickly. The second was still there and should go to half price this week.

 

The Hitchcock does a bit better here; the chairs would sell for about $40 for the set. The factory was about 45 minutes up the road. The problem is while everyone wants painted cabinets and painted furniture, no one wants that particular painted furniture.

 

Bargains everywhere! Why does anyone go to IKEA?

 

Of no outstanding interest to me: someone is throwing away two of these. I just liked the elephant fabric:

 

Can't beat free! Can see them working in a funky eclectic abode.

 

Id have stopped and picked those up !
