A Very Simple Setee
Ipswich does, in fact, have the most First Period homes in the Country. That translates into:
-a few very, very old homes (First Period, 1625-1725), and
-some very old homes (Second Period, or Georgian, 1725-1790), and
-an awful lot of of old homes (Third Period, or Federal, 1790-1830; and
-various styles from the Victorian Period, 1830-1900).
We happen to Really Love working on Old Homes. And when we finish and someone says, "IT LOOKS AS IF IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE!" we feel great! That is the highest compliment could hear! Anyway, enough about our passion...
This great customer wanted a Simple Settee in the living room of her 19th Century home. Okey Dokie! Throw us in the Briar Patch!
These pictures tell the story...
