[QUOTE="Sparrow, post: 4665712, member: 78391"]Hi all! I posted awhile back about my mom, who refurbishes furniture, and you guys gave me some fantastic information about a desk she refinished. Mom recently bought a couple pieces at an estate sale - she usually doesn't buy higher end stuff to refurbish (most of her stuff is thrift store finds or from Habitat for Humanity), and she generally resurfaces and paints them to sell. These are a little bit more expensive than her usual repitoire, and we want to make sure she's doing right by them. Was hoping you guys might be able to tell us a little more about them, style/period wise? The mirrored piece is something she plans to keep for herself (it's a bit dirty, these were taken at the estate sale). The table, chairs, and buffet (looks similar to tigerwood) she plans to sell. Any info would be hugely appreciated, she's afraid to even touch them to clean, let alone work on, until she's sure of what she has. Thanks![/QUOTE]
