English Country Coffee

Traveling the English countryside, we stopped in at the local eatery. It was apparent from the washed out, almost pickled look, that this lovely piece of furniture placed strategically between the old chaise lounge and the ladder back chairs in the lobby had been there for about as long as this diner had been operating. But, as I looked further, I thought, "No. This is a reproduction, but a darned good one." What gave it away was the look of the turned legs. So perfect. Not like those that would have been made a couple of centuries ago. These coffee table legs were smooth, not wavy. They must have been from the Osborne collection at Osborne Wood Products. The Country Coffee Table Leg transcends the ages.
