Re: Trying to determine what dynasty? |

Message "age cracks in wood"? Wood can crack due to internal stresses when new-cut and kiln-dried too quickly rather than allowed to natural dry slow. Crack might not occur immediately after painted or used in house or furniture, but perhaps a few weeks or months later. Due to quick production rather than 'age'. Note auctioneer web site does not say piece is antique. Someone's grandmother, born 1935, could be considered "very old". Some think items made 1980's look "old." Good luck, Cal Post a Response |
