<p>Thanks so much.  The lady who owned the home before us obviously loved every millimeter of it and took loving care of this in particular.  I&#8217;m not sure that this is a keeper for us, but I would like to know more about it.</p></blockquote>
<p>Emily: I think this is a relic of the late 60s or early 70s. Remember harvest gold and avocado green? This color &#8211; an earthy, coppertone brown &#8211; went hand-in-hand along with them. This piece is amazing to see. At first I got the heebeejeebees (the 70s were not my best years) but blink! and I was over it. LOVE IT! Work with it, girl &#8211; you can have some amazing decorating fun with this! And it&#8217;s been cared for &#8211; hurray. Toss it out and I assure you &#8212; in 10 years, you will regret it. Deeply.</p>
