New Acquisition - American Sheridan Chest of Drawers circa 1820

Isn't it just gorgeous? I found it in this wonderful store called Sweet Home Antiques in Pine Mountain, Georgia. The woodwork is just amazing, and it's even more beautiful in person.  The chest is much larger and taller than it appears, so I'm very glad I didn't end up with a larger piece.

If anyone has any idea of what the wood is, please let me know. I'm thinking it's Mahogany but I'm not an expert in identifying wood.

Foyer Redecoration

I redecorated the foyer with some furnishings from my grandmother's house. The marble top wood cabinet came from one of her bedrooms and the mirror came from her living room. I still think the cabinet/table is gorgeous even if it has a crack and is missing a shelf. It's a family heirloom.

The clock is a Seth Thomas clock from around 1879 and the plate is made by Johnson & Brother's and is the famous Holland pattern also known as "Blue Onion".
