I am desperate to find out something about this piece, as I truly need to sell this to raise some money...I bought it at an antique auction over 35 years ago and have never known a thing about it or why someone would carve a ladies vanity with horns on it ? If anyone is able to help me out, with any information, I would be not only grateful, but thrilled to *finally* know something about this. It appears to be shiny, in the photos, but I had just sprayed it down with lemon oil, as it had been sitting in the loft for quite sometime...My son said he would drive it to wherever it's new home was. Thank you for your time and BTW, I was told by the appraiser and another antique expert that this is definetly a one of a kind piece ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
