The neat thing about buying older furniture, is it's always *so* much more well made than the modern get-it-in-a-box-and-assemble-it-yourself stuff. I wonder what it was like to live in the pre-plywood days, heh. Very cool.

Too often, we've just purchased some cheap particle board "furniture" that isn't designed to last. Now, I'd rather take pride in the piece because real wood furniture can last for generations.

As you said - sometimes it almost feels as if the piece itself is happy about being loved again. I also value those pieces more because I put the work into them.
