RE: Old Furniture: To Throw it Away or Not?!

Wow! I love how the restoration was done. It looked like new furniture. I think old furniture are really more durable. They simply don't make them like they used to. You did a fantastic job of choosing to restore. It's a gem!

Happy new week ahead!

Thank you very much, @iamraincrystal! I'm glad you like it! 😃
I would agree with you that today's quality of the furniture is not even close to some old pieces. It appears to me like it's made in a consumerism style of living (throw it and buy new), and not at all to last.

Even the painter that we hired to refresh the room and the whole apartment with new paint, told us he wouldn't move it to paint the walls behind (especially not the cabinets) if they were some newly bought IKEA type of furniture. When I asked him why he told us that one of his former customers had the whole wall of closets that completely fell apart when they moved them to paint the wall behind. As he was asked to compensate for the damage, what he did, he told us, it was the experience that thought him the lesson about that modern, good looking, but low-quality furniture.
