You're right, Leon. Those are really nicely designed.

Agreed, but it's more decorative, more of a G&G + Roycroft influence.

Maybe it's just me, but I find the Treter Buffet

to be pretty much gluteous ugly.

I think I'd like it better in fumed white oak. It's reminiscent of the
Liberty sideboard which I liked but wouldn't want in my home. This is
similar: http://archive.liveauctioneers.com/a.../1027_1_md.jpg



Man, Larry, going from bad to worse. I'm sure the craftsmanship is
outstanding, but nothing on that piece flows well. The base looks like a
reasonably elegant tapered piece was trying to grow, but got crushed by a
falling flat table with a shelf on top of it before the base had a chance
to mature.
