<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 116743, member: 37"]I am seeing hand made but not really seeing any signs of true age. Those feet would be a lot more worn, as would that front rung. The top knobs at the back are lathe turned but, whether a machine or hand lathe, I can't tell. The hand planing is too intentionally rough. Any self-respecting carpenter, much less a furniture maker, would leave their work so roughly finished. I am getting the idea that this is a fairly modern rustic artisan piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
