[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 1102359, member: 5170"]The very "top of the tree" furniture has continued to sell for big $ all along, although everything else, even the very nice stuff by "name" makers, seems to be stuck in a brown furniture recession. The weird thing is that this particular table has gone for so much money. It's great and all, but I'm not sure it should be in the stratosphere with Jefferson's side table. Half empty or half full? I choose to see this as a possible good omen in the coming years, that brown furniture "for the rest of us" will recover, and that millennials and their successors will latch on to the fact that an ordinary 19th century brown Victorian table will last centuries longer than their Ikea stuff. Just call me Pollyanna....:)[/QUOTE]
