Hi Janet and Borge,
Borge - thank you for your call of concern on Monday. I have just passed the 24 hour mark with my clock running very well. It took three days of experimenting with where, and by how much, to level the clock works. I think/hope I have it happily leveled now. I'm going to put the bonnet back on and hope for its continued running. I really like the way the gentle sound of the tic-tock fills the house and with the bonnet in place the bell tone is soft and pleasant. I am anxious to have a wonderful experience with my clock.
A million thanks for your patience. If there are any further issues, I will call.
Sincerely,
BC

Dear Janet, I have just uncrated the painting by Eggert and it is hung in our family room . We welcomed it into our home with a "skal "of Icelandic Brennivin. The plywood case was perfect and we are thrilled to have this painting. Thank you for your assistance and follow-through. We hope to viist you and your shop some day. Regards, KGB NJ |
| Janet, Rug arrived safe and sound....I love it! Brightest one we have, the weaver so inventive with color, and fits in just where I hoped it would. Margot |

Janet and Bo:
The clock is beautiful and running very well. Your directions are great. I thought I would share my “leveling experience.” First, I leveled the clock body, using felt gliders that adhere to the bottom of furniture. Second, I leveled the wood frame on which the works sits, using (of all things) popsicle sticks (they don’t compress over time). It is keeping perfect time. I have not wound it yet. Attached are photos in Her (Janet’s pronoun) new habitat. You can use these if you want to show color samples and how it looks with natural light and illuminated night light. Thanks. PP MA |

Hi Janet,
The cabinet arrived and everything was fine.
It looks very nice - I'll send a picture once I get it settled.

My clients were in town this weekend and they love all of the pcs! In fact we found more that we would like to purchase. We got the clock set-up and oddly enough we did it in the afternoon and only had to wait about ten minutes to start it at the time that was on the hands! Designs West CO |

| My rug just arrived and it's even prettier than I expected. I actually didn't purchase it to walk on (heaven forbid!) but to use as a cover for my new side-by-side washer and dryer. The size is just about exact, the thickness is perfect, and the rug's colors complement the colors in the laundry room. It really classes up our laundry room, and I don't have to worry about causing any more wear to this cool antique.
Thanks, Janet, for your great service - and for a product I couldn't be happier with!

Hi Janet, The armoire arrived yesterday and it is completely perfect! The finish is exactly what we were thinking of. Thanks so much for being so pleasant to work with and for such a great finished product - we absolutely love it! Thanks again, Annie |

Dear Janet and Borge -- It's all level and running, thanks to the help of my nephew. I think it lost a minute or two in the last 24 hours, but I'm going to let it go for a few days before trying to make any adjustments. Anyway, it does look lovely, doesn't it? Thank you again for bringing such a lovely piece into my life! Sincerely, Lynne Florida |
Dear Janet, The bookcase, now filled with books, is wonderful, just right. Thank you so much. With best wishes, Bonnie K Boston ![]() |
Hi Janet, I got the desk yesterday. It is perfect!! I love all the details the paint, the pulls, the keys. It will get much use and love. FYI Plycon did a top rate job. I gave the delivery guys a big tip because they handled everything very carefully and put the desk together for me. Thanks!!!! Py San Francisco ![]() |
| The rugs arrived safely yesterday. Thank you Janet! When you have time for more small rug (around 4' length) photography please let me know. The colors in the big southwest runner are absolutely perfect with my persian rugs. I treasure them all, reminding me of my sweet grama Elizabet Gail in CA |
Hi Janet. The dresser arrived and I LOVE IT!!!! Thank you so much!!! It looks so pretty in my bedroom. Just perfect. I hope you are doing well. Michele |
want to thank you for rewashing rug--it looks great and that was appreciated. Natasha |

| Janet--
Wow! Monty just finished putting the dresser together and it is really,
really beautiful! The changing table top is perfect. I had no idea it
would be so substantial and match the dresser so nicely. Please tell
Borge that I (we) absolutely love it! The changing pad and wipes fit
perfectly. It's making us both so excited to change diapers!! Thank you both so much for all your help and all the wonderful furniture that we'll love as a family for a long time. Hope to see you around this summer! Sarah and Monty |

| I got the rug this morning -- very quick delivery! It is a beautiful, thick rug. Thanks John |
and this clock went to its beautiful home in NH![]() |
Keith and I want to thank you for the beautiful cupboard. It brings tranquillity to our front hall and makes me smile as I come down the stairs. The tobacco table does look perfect next to it, with the black rotary phone and old stained glass lamp on top. Your advice was just great. I was wondering - the writing inside the right door of the cupboard says "Anno, 1823." Do you know what that date means? The other date of 1903 with initials above it might be the date it was painted? Just curious. Thanks again for everything- Yours, |

Hi Janet and Borge! We received our furniture on Thursday and absolutely love all of the pieces. There was only one problem-- wish we had ordered more!!!

Hi Janet, when I arrived home from Rochester on Sunday, the painting was there. Thank you. I love it and it does look like my 5th Great Grandfather's house in Denmark, near Felsted Parish in Aabenraa. Carole ![]() |
Hi Janet, The bench arrived and it will be perfect for the porch. I love the design, too. The rugs are great colors...I am headed down to the cabin to "arrange" things now. Many thanks. JJ in ME |
Thank you for all you did. WE LOVE the armoire! It’s already proven both functional and an element of beauty in our bedroom. Best, Nancy Boston |
Hi Janet I finally got the bed today, I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for your help and creating such a beautiful piece for my daughter to enjoy forever! Kindly Karen K |
Janet, the rug just arrived a little bit ago, and it’s beautiful!
My daughter loves it, and the colors and textures are just the thing on
her bedroom floor. She is only 15, but she already has an appreciation
for vintage textiles. Thank you for such prompt, outstanding service.
I’ll be watching your website for more items for our house.
Peace, M Lewis VA |
Janet and Borge, the three of us love the secretary/dresser. Thank you and have a wonderful summer. Judith VT |

Plycon just delivered and assembled the lovely armoire which looks great with the ceiling and walls. The coordinating tassel is a perfect touch. The movers were very nice and competent. It has been a total pleasure to deal with you on all levels. I look forward to another purchase when our budget permits. Many thanks, Mary MA |

Dear Janet, You asked for a photo of the trunk I purchased from you when I finished rosemaling it. Well, here it is finally. Sincerely, Bonnie S |
Hi Janet,The stools have arrived safely! Your husband did a fine job with the tops.Now I have a new creative project in the guest room and I wonder were it will take me.Thanks,Ann in FL |
| My name is Terry and you may recall selling me a Mora clock last summer.
My wife and I picked it up and took it to our house in Vermont. We managed
to leave the head of the clock behind, and we coordinated with you and
some friends to have the last piece brought up to Stockbridge. The clock
is wonderful, and we are enjoying it!

hi janet and borge, just to let you know that we got the desk back and reassembled safely. it looks terrific, and it is a far better work space than what i had. thanks again for getting it ready so quickly! best, lene MA |

Dear Janet and Borge, I have meant to send you a picture for a few months of the spice cabinets I bought from you a long while back installed in our new kitchen but I just kept forgetting. I am attaching a picture of the two of them integrated into our pantry wall. The cabinet installers actually wanted to nail them into place and/or replace the wood and we were horrified! We told them to just build slip in holes for each and do not touch them. Some people don't understand. Anyway, they built small dovetail drawers around the cabinets to fill in the gaps and I think they absolutely make the wall. Everyone asks about them and where we got them from. Thanks again so much and we are really glad we found you! Sandra and Kenn O Canada |
Dear Janet, I just returned from Vermont and wanted to let you know how absolutely wonderful the furniture is. The milk paint is perfect and gorgeous. Without realizing it, the finish almost exactly matches the stain on the wall, making the tiny room feel quite spacious! And of course you were absolutely right on the little desk. I spent the 4.5 days frantically working, cleaning, arranging, unpacking, running errands, but got about 95% of what needed to get done, done. I'm back in Miami now and miss the spring! Here are some photos. I cannot thank you enough for your help and can't imagine if I hadn't found your web site. I hope someday we'll be able to upgrade some of the furniture in the "big" house with your antiques. The guesthouse now looks better than the main one! best, Ruth R. Everything fit exactly as I had hoped Florida |
|
Hi Janet....the cupboard looks wonderful...I love the color, and the application, you got it right! Did you use flat latex paint, and that's all? I will send you a picture when I get organized. Now I need a kitchen table! xx, Jean in MA ![]() |

Hi Janet, I just quickly wanted to let you know we love the bed! The craftsmanship is beautiful and it looks so nice in my daughter’s room. She could not wait to try it out and spent a very successful first night in a big girl bed. She loves it! Thank you for your wonderful service, holly AZ ![]() |
|
THANK YOU SO MUCH! We can't even begin to tell you how excited we are! Glad that the new members of the family were such big hits with your shoppers! Looking forward to doing business with you in the future. Thanks again, All the best to you and Borge. Jill in VA and four dressers to match! |

Hi Janet.....the rug arrived today and I do love it. Keep me in mind > always, when you get rag rugs.....the wider the better! My house is full > of them, and I have extras for when I need to clean them. My thanks, and > appreciation. Hope to hear from you soon either on more rugs, or a tiny > cupboard! W WA |

| Perhaps it will be! You two will have to stop by Austin if you've ever a wild hair and want to check up on one of your "babies" you've prepared for life and sent flying out of the nest! Stop by and stay awhile -- any time! Although the middle of summer here WOULD NOT be my recommendation! Thanks a million, y'all. Glad to know it just might be tiptoeing into Springtime there afterall.... Many, many thanks, Ceil in TX ![]() |

Hi Janet. The cabinet has been delivered and please tell your husband that we love it! His work is truly amazing. I appreciate all your help in getting this to us and we will definitely enjoy it. When you get a few minutes could you email me back and let me know what you suggest we do to clean and wax some of the other pieces we have. I don’t want to do anything that we shouldn’t to them. Thanks, Linda Massachusetts ![]() |

Hi Janet thank you so much - the grater arrived super fast, very pleased. Given the postage costs that are charged on ebay I have to congratulate you on keeping thye price down. sincerely Debbie J Australia |

Dear Janet and Borge, What a surprise to open my beautiful Swedish flour container on Christmas! It was so sweet of Jeff to notice how I admired it and for you to hold it for him. I also loved the sweet blue spoon rack which was given to me on my birthday. The color is so perfect in my kitchen. I had a real Swedish holiday this year thanks to you! Best regards and Happy New Year! JM in Fl |

Hi Janet, Happy New Year to you too. Thanks for your influence and support in gaining recognition/compensation for the hassles with the shipping company. It means alot to us. Attached are some pictures of the new bedroom with all of the new pieces in place. The pix don't really do it justice - it is so sweet and charming in person. We can't decide which piece we like best - but it all works together so well. Can't believe we put this all together using pictures only (and some good advice from you) - it couldn't have come out more perfectly had we seen and evaluated each piece in person! We bought the little dresser (in the pix) from an interior decorator in LA-area and had that sent up to us. It looks beautiful with all of our pieces from you - just need to change out the brass knobs. Thank you for everything! LS in CA |

| Hi Again: Just wanted to let you know that I got a nice surprise in the mail today! The bee skep is beautiful. I've placed it with my little collection of four others in my living room. Thank you Gerri |

Hi Janet, I received the lovely furniture yesterday! :-) Everything is so pretty, and I'm certain to have fun have a first try at upholstery - of the vanity bench. The wood match for the replacement top for the nightstand was so excellent, and appears to be old wood; no one would ever know it wasn't the original top. Please thank Borge for doing such an excellent job . . . as usual! Thank you also for the maple candy - such a nice reminder of my time going to school in Vermont, where I used to go to Eaton's Sugar House for lunch at least once a week! I really liked Plycon - they gave me a two-hour window for delivery, and showed up about 20 minutes after the beginning of that two-hour window. Everything was wrapped and padded well, and the delivery people were very pleasant and accommodating. All in all, an excellent delivery! Just thought you'd want to know that Plycon was a great choice! "Talk" to you soon. SN in CA |

Everyone is SO impressed with your furniture. The finishes ands style and the way the construction of the pieces and how they are made is a source of much conversation and awe. Many think that they were purchased in New York or at Sotheby's and we say," yes, they are special, aren't they: we loved them and had to have them." For family members and our friend, of course, we tell them about you and e hope you will be hearing from and having future sales based on our recommendations and their viewing of your wonderful things! Thanks for everything. When we photograph the house professionally we will be sure to send you copies. What I sent you were really bad snapshots. MF Texas |
|
Hi Janet, Plycon just left. The pieces are perfect: size, color, workability, everything. I love them! It was wonderful working with you, and I will regularly check your website for other great finds. Thank you so much (and for the maple candy!). Regards, Kate H |

| Dear Janet and Borge, It was so much fun to see you both almost makes want to buy another piece so I can run up and visit. The dresser is fantastic. It looks great in its setting and I love the little rug/runner underneath. Thanks so much for helping me acquire this amazing piece for my collection. Hope all is well, including areas below the knee, in your lives! Molly NYC |

From a California customer, some photos PS...I know I've told you before, but I want to tell you again how very much I appreciate your layaway program. You have allowed me to get the most beautiful antiques to fill my home with, things I could not have otherwise afforded, and the fact that you don't charge interest is just amazing and so wonderful and makes them that much more affordable. |

Hi Janet, The armoire and dresser arrived and are exquisite! Wow- they look beautiful in our home. I love the wood on the armoire and am so glad I chose a clear wax for that one and the dresser is perfect in cherry finish. Please tell Borge thank you for all the nice work he did to transform the armoire into the perfect desk for me- I will really enjoy! All my best to you and thanks again, laura -We love the maple sweets too! Virginia |

| Hi, Janet, The rug came today and it's a beaut! AND it has a perfect pattern to repeat the arched carving on the base of our Swedish dinette table! I'm so excited... Now if we can just get the house built. ... Linda |

| Desks just arrived and all looks awesome! Movers were friendly, careful
and a pleasure.

boys well. Many thanks a million. dawn |

| Dear Janet and Bo,
Just a quick note to let you know that our new stepback cupboard has
found it's new home and loves it. The cupboard fits the spot we picked
out for it and it looks terrific. Thank you for doing such a great job on restoring the cupboard. In addition, also a note of thanks for selling us the painting from your home. It is absolutely beautiful and since it is a birthday present for me it will be fondly remembered as a very special gift. I hope that before we leave in July to Denmark, and after I do my research, I can contact you and Bo for ideas as to what shops i might try to visit for paintings and antique furniture. Thank you so much, it was a pleasure meeting you both. Fondly Mike F |

| Dear Janet, I have finally made my way up to Portland to see the trunk at our son's home. It indeed is beautiful, and it arrived in perfect condition. Now the task of rosemaling! I will send you a photo when finished....which may be this summer. Thank you again for your help. Bonnie S |

| Hi Janet,
Just wanted to thank you for the pieces that we bought! We love them and we enjoy doing business with you guys!! We have them set up in our bedroom now and we really like them....the rugs are also beautiful and work great! Thanks, take care, Ryan and Dana |
|
| Hi Janet! The cupboard arrived last week. It's exactly as you represented it, and we're very happy with it. Too bad our house has very little room left in it to fill with your pieces. --Gil |
|
| Janet
Rug arrived and it's already my favorite....just perfect! I am still hoping for a front hall rug replacement someday; I think the style has a name....the stripes are irregular, blend in to each other midway through sometimes, sometimes not. All together different look than the plain stripes.. It is reds, darker blues, dark greens...if you have one someday I'd love a look. many thanks, Margot |
|
| Janet and Borge,
It was so good to see you today. We LOVE the table!! * And you can see that your other pieces are already well loved here, as well. I think it's safe to say: we're madly in love with your work!. Your pieces truly make our magical house sing. Thank you both - we're so happy! Plus, your little green shelf was such a sweet surprise, thank you very much - I love it! Have a lovely Christmas, ,maybe it will snow! Your chum in Danby, Sally *: dinner tonight was the best!! |
|
| Janet, The table arrived yesterday and it looks great in my dining room! The design on the apron really complements the fluting on my linen press. Excellent choice and beautifully refinished! The delivery people were very careful unloading and assembling it, no problems there. And if I haven't mentioned it, I also received the Briwax and delicious candy. Many thanks to you and Borge, and best wishes for the holidays. Lorraine Denver |

| Hi Janet,

|
| Hi Janet, My order came without incident and I love them! I so wish I were back there and could go thru your rug room for more. I especially like the little one, #2606. Might you have others like it in pattern, any size and color? Janet...we need more on your web site. Especially some large and wide ones. Linda |
|
| Hi janet-
Just picked up my rug being held at the post office and it's perfect! It looks exactly as you described and photographed and fits as if it was made for the room. i bought that 10' brightly colored runner with purple, black and even magenta and it really looks stunning on my black stained wood floors. Thanks so much for including washing info as well. Much appreciated. Best to you, Kelly |
|
| Dear Janet, You know me way too well, the second set of chairs are perfect. They are precisely what I wanted and the legs are perfect and beautiful. I even love the small amount of original paint and they will coordinate well with many things including the Gateleg Table. Thanks for your trouble, consider them sold. Thanks R. Palm |

| Hi, Janet and Borge! Re: Dresser #0521-1 and Night Stand #0112-2 The dresser and night table arrived at 9:00pm on Tuesday, September 5th. Even though the photos accurately reflected both pieces, they were far more charming. The dresser is really spectacular. And the most wonderful piece of furniture I have ever owned. The wood finish coloring is perfect and the red base was more subtle than I thought it would be - a great color red. The night stand is adorable and I'm glad I stayed with the marble top. They book look like they belong in my bedroom. The wood finish and coloring look great; you were right to leave the night table alone. And my bed frame has both colorings. I just LOVE them! When I put my room back together (the old dresser and night table just left this afternoon so everything is piled on my bed), I'll take some photos and send them to you. I think you will be pleased and feel as I do that they have found a wonderful home. I can see how the "dresser" would be a showcase in a home. I toyed with the idea of putting it in my living room, but it wouldn't look right and I want to keep it where it is. It belongs in my bedroom. At first I couldn't find the key and tassle because I didn't realize the carved top was actually a drawer. That was a fun surprise. I know I'm rambling and gushing about them, but I couldn't be more thrilled and moved by their warmth and beauty and that they traveled a great distance to find their home. There was a fresh little chip on the inside of one of the feet, but it's minor and did not affect the stability of the base. I can touch it up with Briwax. I had it noted on the shipping receipt. Other than that, both pieces were in excellent condition, as described. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! This was a wonderful experience and I'm so glad I found you online. Best wishes to you and your staff, Vicky |
|
| Hi, Janet! I've had so much fun with you on this project. I'm very grateful for your input. I tend to be too "matchy" sometimes, so I'm glad I asked for your opinion on the nightstand color and finish. Please thank everyone else for their votes. And thanks for the extra coat of wax. With much gratitude, Vicky Florida |
|
| Janet, thank you for delivering the chairs, etc. Thank you especially
for storing them until our attic was ready so we could move stuff out of the rental house to make room. Sally C in VT |
|
| Dear Janet & Borge, My husband, Lew, & I are sorry we missed you yesterday but obviously we fell in love with your beautiful furniture. Since my grandparents were from Sweden, I have a special fondness for Scandinavian pine & was very excited to visit your shop. I am so happy over the queen bed & tobacco stand!!! We live in an 1850 brick carriage house & the furniture will look perfect in our bedroom. Anyway....I am confirming that I am buying these two items from you. Please let me know if you need any other information from me. Thank you! Linda M |
|
| Hello, Janet and Borge! Ray and I certainly did enjoy meeting you both
on our recent trip to Vermont. Just thought I would let you know that
the copper mold cleaned up beautifully! I did buy some Lime Away and managed
to get rid of all those stubborn lime deposits. It now lives on my kitchen
wall and I did bake a cake in it! Who knows, we may stop by on our next
trip to the Manchester area. Take care. Yvonne and Ray P |
|
| Thank you so much Janet. I truly appreciate everything you have done for our household. Your rugs and the bench are perfect. A million thanks. Mary Mary J Colorado |
|
| Janet, The bench is safely in place! It is just perfect and I thank you again for your help. Hope to "speak" with you again someday! Catherine |
|
| Hello Janet,
Wow! A great website, professional and friendly manner, and now incredible efficiency!! Yes, please use the same credit card. If the bench is picked up Tuesday, when can I expect delivery in Atlanta? Many thanks to all of you. The pictures look great! Catherine |
|
| Janet - Thank you so much for the piece - we LOVE it and it is just
perfect for the space. I will keep you information and look forward to working with you all again as well as referring you to some friends. Many thanks. Natalie D in NYC |

| Hi Janet, Here are some pics of the hutch and corner cupboard in our new (almost finished) dinning room. they are beautiful. Everyone who walks in stops and steps back to admire them. then they ask where I got them. I am not very good at sending pictures so let me know if you can't open them. I am now looking for a dresser and a chest. I have them picked out already! I just need to refill my piggy bank. Hope to be down there soon. Jeanie Forbes Renovating a house for 16 months with my husband was exhausting and stressful. All the decisions to be made was daunting. All except two- My new hutch and corner cupboard. Those were decisions I make after looking for furniture in furniture stores and on the internet. When I saw the hutch an corner cupboard at Country Gallery Antiques I bought them on the spot! They are unique and beautiful. All I can say is, I love my dinning room. Whenever I walk by it I stop and admire it. Jeanie F in Londonderry, VT |

| 11/17/2005 (kudos to Boston Trucking!) Hi Janet, I received all the furniture this evening from Boston Trucking (what a nice driver!) and everything is just lovely . . . as I expected . . . and as usual! :-) The handkerchief dresser is especially pretty - even nicer than the photograph on your website! Believe me, I'll come back for more!! Thank Borge for the lovely restoration work. The differences between the unrestored pictures on your website and the pieces I just received are remarkable!! By the way, I emailed you last week, I believe, about your vanity stool (1007-1) and was definitely interested in it, but wondered if it could be sent via UPS. Let me know! Thanks again!! I really appreciate your furniture, personal attention, layaways, etc., etc., etc. Shari California |

| 11/29/2005 (kudos to Boston Trucking!) Hi, Janet! Just a quick note to let you know the server arrived safe and sound. It's wonderful, fits in its new home like it was made for the space and the delivery man was just great. Thanks again! --Becky J Washington |

Hi Janet and Borge, Just want to tell you how THRILLED we are with the armoire. It is just what we needed and it is more bequtiful than I expected! It was also a pleasure to buy from you - Borge and Dave were terrific, setting it up for us, and we LOVE the syrup! You do beautiful work, Borge, and I will certainly pass your name on to others. Oh, by hte way, I forgot to write down how to take it apart, should we ever need to in the future. When you get a chance, please tell me if this is the correct order of things, and add any details I should know. Thanks!: Be well !!! Felice and Gregg Baltimore, MD |

Hi Janet, The furniture arrived yesterday and all pieces are so, so beautiful! It was a pleasure meeting Borge and his compatriot assistant. It has truly been a pleasure working with you all and I will definitely order more furniture from you in the future and have told everyone I know about how great you all are! Borge will never get "caught up" but at least we will all have beautiful furniture! I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you this trip, but hopefully we can meet next go around. Ellie Outer Banks, NC |

Dear Ms. Fram and Mr. Hermansen, I ran across your web site while researching Swedish antiques and wanted to write to tell you how impressed I am with your offerings and your web design. Your site is easy to navigate and your antiques are truly wonderful--authentic, quality pieces. I hope someday either to visit your shop (I live in Ohio but love Vermont) or perhaps order on line. I was also fascinated with the restoration information and choices you provide on your site. First rate. All the Best, Lisa Pace Stow, Ohio 44224 |

Dear Janet, Boston Trucking just left. The desks are GORGEOUS! Thank you so much. For feedback the driver was great too! Oh my, I am in heaven and I am sure you will hear from me again. Warmest thanks, Becky Wisconsin |

Hi Janet, Thanks! You guys are the best . . . with the best stuff! Sharilyn California |

Janet Thanks to your excellent packing, the little table and duck arrived yesterday (Thurs ) in perfect condition. The table turned out beautifully ! The duck seems very happy in its new home. I forgot to find out the origin of the duck so if you can remember it I would appreciate knowing that info. It's a real treat to visit your wonderful shop. Wish I lived closer so I could stop in now and then. Doenda California |

Hi, Just wanted to let you know that the beautiful horse arrived safely in his new home. He is just wonderful! Thanks so much for your excellent fast shipping also. Please let me know if you get any additional horses in. Thanks so much, Linda N |

Janet: Your shipment of two rugs arrived early last week. We purchased pads and placed the rugs on Friday. They are lovely! Thanks, too, for crediting us the difference between returned pair and subsequent purchase. Your three rugs have found a happy new home with us. All best, Jenny D NYC |

I am so happy with my two pieces. I decided to not paint or stain the kitchen table, but I wanted to know what would be the best way to wax it? Should I use Briwax and rub it into the surface? If you can give me any tips that would be so helpful. My best regards, Serena C from Connecticut |

Janet The box arrived yesterday in great shape. Love the spears. Let me know if you obtain any other eel spears for sale. Regards Don |

Hi Janet, I picked up the package at the post office today, and everything is just LOVELY! :-) Thanks again for all your assistance with answering questions and for the great packing! Shari |

Hi Janet, I’ve been meaning to write to say thank you, but somehow haven’t got around to it. So, finally, thank you and thanks to Borge for dropping off the little dressers. They look great. I still hope to be able to make another trip up to your shop sometime in the not-too-distant future. Until then, I’ll keep checking the web site. Best, Karena |

Hi, sorry I didn't write yesterday. things got a bit hectic in my house. Yes, as you know, the piece was delivered, met your husband, very nice person. The piece is so beautiful. I sort of had a vision of it when I saw it how it would look and it surpassed my vision. It is just lovely. I am also interested in buying a smaller piece for the same room, I will have to get the measurement and check your website, a server, but a small one, same stain, etc. Anyhow, thanks again.

| Janet & Bø The bed looks lovely-thank you. Kerstin Charlotte, VT |

| Borge, I enjoyed meeting you last week and appreciate the trouble you went through to deliver both pieces on time. I hope your trip home was quick and uneventful. I just thought you should know how wonderful both pieces look in my family room. The TV and accessories fit perfectly in the armoire and look great. My children, who don't usually notice anything new and don't appreciate antiques, even love it. I can't decide which piece I like the most. The apothecary looks as though it was made for the space and offers the space that my husband was looking for his tapes. After many months of debating whether to buy an antique on line, I realize that I made the right decision. I will continue to look at what you have to offer and hopefully I will be doing business with you in the future. Those spice boxes are pulling me in again! PMP in Philadelphia, PA |

| Hi--You delivered to
us last week the beautiful table. It is just perfect. ....Sure, you
can quote me, but I really didn't say much except that the table was
perfect. I could do better than that, like talk about how you made it
fit our size requirement, how cute/interesting the legs are, how the
color was done just right. Anne in Manchester, VT |
|
Børge- Thanks so much...we look forward to treasuring this beautiful piece for many years! We'll talk again when we get closer to delivery (of a table). Best, Beth and Bill in Hartford, CT |

| Hi Janet, I wanted to let you know that I received the lovely shelf today. Excellent packing - it came through the mail absolutely pristinely. I have a question: do you have any idea as to the origin (i.e. Danish or Swedish) and general idea of age? With the other furniture I have purchased from you, I have the approximate date and country of origin, so I wanted to get it on the shelf. Thank for everything - you guys are the greatest! S N in California |

Dear Janet, I received the beautiful salt box this morning in fine shape, and I just love it! Thanks for your excellent service - it's been a pleasure. Sincere regards, P D Phoenix, AZ |

Hi. It came, it's fabulous, many thanks! I'm taking it over to the Hudson River Valley on Sunday. I'm doing a flax to linen workshop at some 18th century tavern where George Washington did something or other, I'm sure I'll learn what. Anyway, the scutching knife will be a very nice addition to the tools I'll be showing. Thanks again, Johannes |
