Oak Parlor Table

Just right for a tea table, this oak parlor table (oak lamp table) with its original finish and the dings of long time use, came home with us from an estate sale with a difference. The entire household contents were included in the sale to the new owners of the house and the new owners held a house clearance sale. No sad emotions, just commerce.

I posted about an earlier oak parlor/lamp table that we found in pieces and DH rebuilt here and here.

This table goes so well with the embroderied fall leaves table cloth from my vintage covers collection.

Close up views of the legs and the original finish.

The fun is in the dressing and making vignettes is always a treat.

One more for fun...

I love the look of the marbled and burgandy covered books and the metal silver napkin ring and thimble on a paper holder in the mini cloche but my favorite thing this week is my Bue Roses double marked Paragon cup and saucer. It stays on my Welsh dresser - this is its first appearance in a vingette.
