SOLD! Very Solid Rock Maple Dresser

Rock Maple DresserRock Maple Dresser 3

If you’re looking for a good, solid dresser then this should fit the bill.  Our rock maple dresser (or bureau) is the real deal.  None of that crappy, flimsy, particle board stuff.  This dresser can handle loads of moving and banging around; because it’s made of rock (or hard, or sugar) maple, it is very heavy.

From Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_saccharum

“The wood is one of the hardest and densest of the maples and is prized for furniture and flooring. The sapwood can be white, and smaller logs may have a higher proportion of this desirable wood. Bowling alleys and bowling pins are both commonly manufactured fro
m sugar maple. Trees with wavy wood grain, which can occur in curly, quilted, and “birds-eye maple” forms, are especially valued. Maple is also the wood used for basketball courts, including the floors used by the NBA, and it is a popular wood for baseball bats, along with white ash. It is also widely used in the manufacture of musical instruments, such as the members of the violin family (sides and back), guitars (neck), and drum shells. It is also quite flexible and makes excellent archery bows”.

Condition:  Aside from surface scratches and dings seen on the top of the dresser, the piece is in excellent condition.  The back (see picture) and inside of drawers (see one picture) are in great shape.

Price:  $90.00 plus Maine sales tax of $4.95 for a total of $94.95

He loved our shops, especially Heritage Books, Maps & Ephemera – it was his baby.

He loved me, and oh how I loved him.

SOLD! Vintage Fainting Couch (Chaise Lounge)

 Fainting Couch Fainting Couch 12 Fainting Couch 11 Fainting Couch 10
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A fainting couch is a couch with a back that is traditionally raised at one end. The back may be situated completely at one side of the couch, or may wrap around and extend the entire length of the piece much like a traditional couch. However, fainting couches are easily differentiated from more traditional couches, having one end of the back raised.

Fainting couches were popular in the 19th century, and were particularly used by women.

Some houses would take this to the level of having separate fainting rooms, where these couches would be the featured furniture.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fainting_couch

Condition:  While the upholstery of our fainting couch is in very good condition, the legs were damaged at one point and need repair (we do have the necessary pieces as shown in the pictures); however, the couch is perfectly usable as is!  Come on in and try it out!  It’s a fabulous piece and if we had room in our house, I’d take it home right away!

Dimensions:  72″L x 30″W.   The body of the couch is about 16″H, while the head is about 25″H.

Price:   $95.00 plus Maine sales tax of $5.23 for a total of $100.23.
