    Table is 27" tall,about 27" wide. Three leg flat ornate rose design. Bottom lick tier is about 12" wide with same ornate design. Two high back matching chairs are classic of the 18th century cast garden ornate filigree design. Chair night is about 39" h 14" w.
    This set was found in a folk art shop in southern Illinois. We plan to sand blast lead paint off carefully inspect all pieces as we go. We will re paint filigree white roses red and daisy 's yellow all leaves' green and try too put table back to original. It has about 20 or so layers of paint and now is all white. These tables would sit surrounded by street gardens Orin estate gardens and you would sit eat biscotti and drink tea.

    Thanks for reading hopefully I was helpful here I will post pictures of finished project when I am done

      How do you sand blast lead paint without contaminating everything around it?
    4. Celiene Celiene, 8 years ago
