Dining Room Set
This is a companion piece to the china cabinet and was also made by the National Table Co. Limited in Owen Sound. It too is solid wood and can be lengthened by adding either of the two leaves which come with it. Castors on the legs also make it easy to move. Six chairs made by the Chesley Chair Co. Ltd. also accompany it, one of which is a captain's chair. Chairs under the Chesley name were manufactured until 1952.
Dimensions: 135cm - 193cm long x 111cm wide x 74cm tall (53" - 76" x 43.5" x 29").
Dimensions: 135cm - 193cm long x 111cm wide x 74cm tall (53" - 76" x 43.5" x 29").
With the exception of a couple of scratches on the surface of the table top it is in excellent condition. The chairs are also in great shape although some new fabric would make them sparkle just a little more. This can be easily done at home.

Antique Dresser with Mirror
This is a lovely little antique dresser with a gorgeous round little mirror. It has three spacious drawers with unique handles. Dovetailed drawers and metal drawer glides.

Dimensions: 91cm wide x 43cm deep x 88cm tall (without mirror) (36" x 17" x 34.5").
This dresser is in fairly good condition although one of the handles is missing. Apparently the owner has it somewhere in her house so hopefully it can be found, otherwise the handles can be replaced.
There is some wear on the underside of the drawers and on the surface. |

Antique Hall Table
I love antiques and this little hall table is no exception. Although I say "hall table" it can be used in pretty much any room given its compact size. These types of tables are often referred to as "side" or "occasional" tables. The little drawer is perfect for keys, mail or other small items. Quite sturdy.
Dimensions: 41cm deep x 41cm wide x 77cm tall (16" x 16" x 30.5").
Dimensions: 41cm deep x 41cm wide x 77cm tall (16" x 16" x 30.5").
This belonged to a friend's parents and is in excellent condition. There is currently a small scratch on the surface but I will be buffing that out.
