MAHOGANY - Family Woodworking

The furniture in my folks living room was from a movie. The movie was Lost Horizon or something similar. Anyway the furniture was very modern for its day. It was not as radical as Art Decco but it was definitely going that way from what was conventional. All of this is just leading up to the wood. The wood was "bleached Phillipine Mahogany." It had chatoyance and was knock-your-sox-off beautiful.

I don't quite understand why they used such beautiful wood. The movie was made in the "Black and White film" era. I will look and see if any pictures of it are in Myrna's picture files. I will warn you; if I find them the quality will be poor because of the Brownie camera that took them.

Man! This sure brought back a flood of memories.

Enjoy,

JimB
