Oh I think you are right about the laurel I am thrilled. :) Mine grows straight up like a tree though I cut it trying to encourage it to bush out. That threw me off but once I saw more pictures I am quite sure it is laurel. Not sure about mulberry though so I am trying to post better pic...somehow it won't accept the pics from Photobucket..will keep trying..Thank you so much. :)

I have 6 of these and am looking for several more or similar carved rose pattern. There is a similar rose pattern and I have three of them but I don't know what company makes them. My Duncan Phyfe (not sure of spelling) mahogany table seats 12 with a matching curved china cabinet and small buffet which I got at an auction years ago for $900.00. Beautiful condition. Would love to add some chairs. Have matching fabric to cover the chair seats. Just need to find them.

It's a Montgomery Ward machine (electric?) in a Singer base ... no mystery there. Wards bought machines made by others and added their label. The probable manufacturer is "Happy" of Japan ... good quality machines if well cared for. The attachments are binding feet and others. I can't ID them all. IF IT WORKS, it could be a useful machine for someone who quilts, but unless old treadle machine bases are selling for high prices, sell it on Craigslist as a complete machine for $250 or so and haggle down a bit.

This reminds me of the famous Art Lintgen MD - of Montgomery County, PA. He was able to take an unlabeled vinyl recording of classical music and identify the piece by inspecting the record’s grooves. He demonstrated his skill on That’s Incredible, an ABC TV show in the 80’s. Later, The Amazing Randy confirmed he truly possessed this ability. So surely someone will know what rose this is.
