Todays bit of excitement is this fabulous little Chevret (a little piece of furniture that late 18th century ladies used for 'pass times'). I dont think I have ever seen quite such a lady like example!! It is supremely elegant, almost Kate Moss proportions, and decorated with original penwork of the finest design. The upper part of it lifts off so that madam could cary her books to different parts of the room.

Anyway it is lovely, and happens to belong to a 'Lady of title' who wants us to find a new home for it. Anyone in love with it as much as I am?
