Antique Purveyor site

I had posted a subject here on my blog called:
My style and how I would describe it
I received a wonderful comment from the Antique Purveyor and thought it was worth seperating it from the original thread. This way it can found easily. What talent is shown on this website in the furniture they create and sell. The craftmanship is amazing!
You should really check it out!

Here is the comment I received for posting a photo of their chairs in reference to representing my style. I have a lot to learn about Blogging, and try not to step on anyone's toes as far as photos go. It is so hard to grab photos for inspiration and then when you choose which ones you want to use, you do not have all the sources. What a wonderful message I got today, and I am so appreciative of the message that I decided to make it have its own space.

Hi everyone. Those Duncan Phyfe pinwheel chairs were not made by Drexel. I made them! LOL.You can see my watermark in the picture as well (AntiquePurveyor.com). We actually sold the originals about 8 years ago and maybe those were Drexel. Anyways, they sold for good money back in the day. Having left the chair ad on my site as "sold", the chair consistently brought me inquiries and leads and eveyone wanted the chair. So, we copied it. They have been available on my website for a long time now, and sometimes you can find pairs of arms on sale. Right now, for example, you can take a pair for $300! You can't call that rich. Lol.Anyways, I love your blog here and thanks for sharing our pictures and not taking credit for them! That is kind of you. For those who want this style Duncan Phyfe dining chair, here is our website.http://www.antiquepurveyor.com/ Maybe the admin can link us up!I can share your blog link as well.

All I can say is WOW to the furniture shown on that website!

Hi Lori!
I deleted your duplicate post, it did come through, I just moderate comments so I can review before posting. Spam guard.

Thanks, I am LOVING our move! Just taking our time to find just the right house. So many and each has its plusses and minuses. Abosolutely love one but needs expensive updating, like another but more busy area. You know... But the beach is JUST RIGHT! I am up to 1 1/2 miles walking on the soft sand on the beach, took a while to build up slowly, boy did my legs hurt! ha ha
Great to hear from you! I need to get on the boards and see what everyone is up to!

Lori,
Thanks for visiting! I have started a new Blog, not ready yet to show but it is for my Florida days. Living in Virginia was my experiences on this blog.

I thought the new life should get a new Blog, with links to the old one for reference.

I am still loving it here! Laid back and slower pace, I like that!

Hi,
I have a cool picture for you, which made me think of your blog.
A customer purchased chairs fom me, and upholstered them with high end fabric with a tropical theme. I would like to share it with you, but where do I send it?
