Something in the air

It must be something in the air. Out looking for birthday presents, I found these books, a stone's throw from St. Mary's in Totnes.


Literally for a song. I would happily have paid, for each page, what I paid for each book. Some things are just meant to be.


The first was right next to the second. A fitting accompaniment, given that my interest in 17th century English furniture, was first piqued, by an exploration of American furniture of the same period.


Cantilevered cupboards.


 Hadley chests.


All the favourites. Nothing else to say.
