A new arrival.........................

Off to the Uk for a short dash to see our new grand-daughter Jessica Elizabeth who was born on the 12th July. We did try to arrange her arrival for the 13th on my birthday but she just couldn`t wait!!! I`m looking forward to taking some pictures for the blog!
Whilst I am away I will leave you with a guessing game......................................


What was this extravagant chair used for?

    Congrats on your grandchild!!! All I can think of is maybe it is a birthing chair...?

    Congratulations Shirley. Mine is now 8 weeks old. Is she the first? Slightly belated Happy Birthday, too.

    How can someone so young and pretty be a Grandmother? How on earth do you do it Shirley?
    I think your chair is actually the Louis XVth. Versailles snow sledge.

    Congratulations on your grand-daughter and belated birthday greetings. I agree with it being a birthing chair. When I had my daughter in 1984 I was given a birthing chair (not like this though) but because I am short my feet wouldn't reach the bits where you rest your feet to push! This looks like it has those feet rests too.
