<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sparrow, post: 4566998, member: 78391&quot;]Thank you all so much for the very helpful terms and identifying information!</p><p><br /></p><p>Our personal leanings are towards stained furniture, but some of her first pieces were bespoke requests, so the colours were within the purview of that.&nbsp; Almost everything she finds is from thrift stores, garage sales, and Habitat for Humanity, for around $40-60.&nbsp; Because of that, most of it requires a lot of sanding/resurfacing, filling in of dents with wood putty, replacing hardware, etc.,&nbsp; so I don&#039;t think any of it is particularly unique or a high end antique.</p><p><br /></p><p>She did a lot of French Provincial in the beginning, as it&#039;s plentiful and usually doesn&#039;t cost as much,&nbsp; but she does try to repair and re-stain if something is in fair condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither of us are very knowledgeable about proper terms and identifying period styles. I&#039;m usually great with research (my professional background is in Medieval and Renaissance History), but furniture is a bit out of my wheelhouse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I really can&#039;t thank you enough for all your help and expertise. You&#039;re a lovely bunch! I&#039;ve attached a few pictures of some of her other pieces she&#039;s sold.&nbsp; Also, thank you for the compliments! I will pass them along- I obviously think she&#039;s amazing, but I&#039;m her daughter and she says I&#039;m biased, so I know it will make her day to hear that you guys think so too![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
