Black and White Challenge.

I shall commence with probably the most unusal tables.
A wool table…right foreground.
No shearing taking place at this time.
Tables of any king was the brief????
Wool bales were often pushed on their side
so they could be used as a table or chair.
The thing which frustrated me most about this practice
was that the user never stood the bale upright after pushing it over.
Outdoor cafe seating in Arras, France.
If you can accept outdoor benches as chairs…
then we have some of Geelong’s
parklands and their tables and chairs.
Seating along
Promenade des Anglais
in Nice, France.
An eight seater, turn of thee century,
solid Tasmanian Blackwood dining table and chairs.
Belonging to MGW’s parents
and valued at $AUD 7000-$AUD 8000 restored, or
$AUD 1,500 – $AUD 1,700 as is.
And no-one showed any interest in it. 😦
The first or one of the few memorials to the Nurses
involved in the Great War.
It can be found at
Lochnagar Crater,
Somme Battlefields
in France

The wrought iron seats and table , in shade, is unknown location…not ruling out the Geelong Gardens. The second was taken at Horsham

enjoyed the variety with the wool table and the other culture-rich shots here – cannot believe nobody wanted the table and chairs – those styles 9and well-made sturdy wood) are so beautiful….

Thank you Yvette. We were disappointed also that it was not sold. Our local Men’s Shed group has it now to be restored hopefully and sold as a fundraiser. Kind of a sad ending for a table with so much history.

Yes – so much junk made these days too – with sets like that overlooked

Glad to see some tables, in which I was sadly lacking.

I often find myself in the same boat. Then find an appropriate, or better, photo after making a feeble attempt at the challenge.
