[QUOTE="Poisonivy, post: 1652510, member: 2417"]Yesterday I bought this fabulous Regency sewing box C.1790-1810.[ATTACH=full]234627[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]234628[/ATTACH] The fittings are all original, absolutely wonderful................. BUT..... The dealer I bought it off pays someone to rip out the original insides of all her boxes and replace it with modern materials. Yes it's over 200 years old and would have been worn inside but it would have stayed original. The second pic shows the horrible work that's been done to it and of course I'll have to rip it all out and put it back to how it should look and with antique materials.[/QUOTE]
