Have you inherited furniture?
Hand-me-down furniture is perceived in different ways.
For some, it has sentimental value and that's why it's always kept in good shape and given a special place at home. Others just doesn't see it as fitting their style and prefer to sell or... re-gift the 'heirlooms'.
Have you inherited furniture from your family? If so, what did you do with it? Did you keep it as is, fix it up or toss it?

7年前I haven't inherited furniture, but my daughter has. I moved into a modern apartment from a four bedroom house, and she moved with her partner at the same time to a four bedroom Edwardian house. My dark oak, mostly Ercol and Jaycee, furniture went with her, and it looks great in her new home- better, in fact, than in my previous 30's semi.

The top photo is the original inherited bergère which was very tired so I sourced a mohair velvet (photo 2) which is as close as I could find to the colour I remembered from my grandparents' study. I now have the history and memories of 3 generations in this pair of armchairs.

7年前I inherited my great grandmother's Lloyd loom seats and I love them. My mother gave me them when I had my first student flat 20 years ago when I was at architecture school and I have loved them ever since. My mother had sprayed them gold! But I updated them in farrow and ball's off black. I love the lines and the scale of these chairs and they fit perfectly in our cottage!
