[Lucretia Borgia]

Some of my best stuff comes from garage sales, thrift stores etc. One particular buy was a $10 six legged side table painted flat yellow. Paint stripper and a lot of TLC later, she is a beauty. My dad say table as originally bought and said WHY? After the project was done, he complimented me on my eye for wood.

[...six legged painted table...]

Yes, it's amazing what you can find under paint. Do you know what kind of wood it is? Is there a craftsman mark under the top or on one of the legs? In other words is it an important piece?

I ask because I have a walnut table that my Father made. He put a message under the table top with his signature. This makes it more valuable not only to me, but to collectors. I will never let this table go. It is beautiful. My Father is 90 now and still an incredible craftsman.
