Many people would be surprised to find many of their symbols have been used by many cultures around the world. It would be fun to take selected symbols and find out their earliest usage, how many cultures have used the symbol, were their any connections between the cultures, do the symbols have the same/similar meanings, and so on. <br /><br />Would love to see one of those chests. Sorry I didn't know about them when I lived in the Metro Detroit area.

You know, I look at that last on...wow. LOVE them!!<br /><br />You know, I look at that last one and "see" a Quilt waiting to happen! - Is it all paint, or is some of the design wood inlay?<br />BTW, I love the Example-Piece on the wall regarding the joinery involved - [my Paternal-Grandfather was apparently a "master"-joiner, between the pro-soccer career and law enforcement]<br /><br />Anyhoo, too bad one of those wasn't lurking around in a basement or attic when you bought the farmhouse! <br />;-D<br />Auntie Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300073760215969631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-30531294973992498202016-07-13T16:01:19.233-04:002016-07-13T16:01:19.233-04:00"There is nothing new under the sun."
