restoration

The Chow table.... all done! There's a glass insert that will go on top. The "chow" style refers to the shape of the legs. John tells me that he didn't refinish it in the traditional chow style (which would have been a stain of walnut or rosewood), but did a custom mixed stain of red mahogany and red chestnut, with gold accents.

On the horizon- two traditional American oval mirrors that will go with our dining room table (pictures taken in our new- not quite finished dining room).
