Thanks, Sochi...but I haven't even figured out the mood board, yet. I have contractors out every day, working on my house. I've had time for a quick comment, here and there, but no time to concentrate on anything for more than a few minutes. Marcolo- Would you want to do it? That way you can clarify what the thread should be or not be. You did an excellent job, with the 1920s DAT :)

I think it's very good for a 1964 job - I live in a similar neighborhood, and its a sight better than a lot of the hack jobs that were inflicted in that decade on some of the late 19th century townhouses here, when the then-run down neighborhood was being reclaimed by the young, the artistic, and the socially pioneering. The open bath isn't so great, but I love allocating the first floor to the kitchen and dining room, and putting the sitter upstairs. I would rework the stair to open it visually as much as possible, and use the front cubbyhole on the ground floor as an office rather than trying to make it a sitting area. I agree with you, Pal, about the cobbled bedroom. It would make a nice project room with some rejiggering. And the back garden has great potential. It looks very like the back of the row house in a beautiful Regency crescent around a pocket park off the Brompton Road in London where, too briefly, I shared the half basement with two other girls for one summer in the late 60's. The garden wasn't used by the family, so we had the use of it for ourselves and our friends. A time dear in my memory.

Maybe not the table..but the chairs....I'm seeing them painted, too. Have you seen these chairs on houzz? Painted silver....very similar to the chairs in your pic, yes? Maybe just seeing them painted would persuade you to take another look? And your set comes with arm chairs, always a nice touch I've had this pic saved.. love the dining set...and the colors. He went and ruined it with that horrible cheap looking lamp, though. Anyway, worth a look.

They made hundreds of thousands of these sets in the 1920s and 30s. So the question comes up a lot. While dealers call it "Baronial" I have never seen that term in a period catalog. The first I heard of that term "Baronial" was as a general category to describe the over the top furnishings (especially office desks and chairs) used to decorate the Robber Barons' homes and offices in the late 19th century as an ostentatious display of wealth. The Sears & Robuck offerings, like your piece, are the low rent version of baronial furniture, if you will. See: Help indentifying dining set
